Hi everyone, After constructing the PSR3a, and running it with dual-colour LEDs, it was clear that the PSR3a is too sensitive. The Powersmart Roller 3b,...

Hey Bruce, By the way, your Hider design is very impressive. I'd like to attempt one on my own one day to have a nice "pet" roaming around the house. Now back...
Hi Brent, there are a few bits that are not required: the left 10K resistor, the 470K resistor and the diode can all be tossed. While we are at it, the...
