Badder Than Batteries: Make A Supercapacitor

Badder Than Batteries: Make A Supercapacitor

Supercapacitors are among the coolest of so-called passive electronic components. Because they are ultra-high-capacity capacitors, they can function as batteries capable of being very rapidly charged and briefly powering many electronic circuits and even small motors with bursts of power. And they’ll endure many more charge-discharge cycles than conventional rechargeable batteries. They’re great as backup power […]

How to Make A Unique “Rewrite” Clock With Arduino, CNC, And Sequins

How to Make A Unique “Rewrite” Clock With Arduino, CNC, And Sequins

This project is a continuation of my quest to build a robotic clock that can write and rewrite the time continuously, day in and day out. My first attempt, Doodle Clock, was a failure due to the marker drying up. Doodle Clock #2 failed because the display — a kids’ magnetic drawing board — soon got […]
