Chillin' out during an arduous reverse engineer
🕑 Added 2025-06-05 02:54:21 +0000 UTCI had to take a break from the reverse engineering of the solar power controller. So I made some brackets and hacked some solar lights for relaxation.
The openscad script is in the video description on YouTube.

These circuits are ultra low power. Any conformally coated industrial panels I've seen tend to coat up to the heatsink, but not the heat sink itself.

Does the corrosion resisting lacquer cause any issues with heat dissipation? Probably not a lot of heat issues in this circuit, but (extreme example) if I painted the stuff on a heat sink would it reduce its effectiveness? Thanks!

Thanks Big Clive. It's always good to take a little break when doing larger tasks. If it gets to be a chore, then it's time to put it away for a bit. Keeps your mind and attitude fresh. The tree project sounds like it will look pretty cool, even as you go along.
