Of all the April Fools pranks that I came across today, the Stealth USB CapsLocker was my favorite. The tiny AVR-driven USB device sends random caps lock keypresses to a PC via a USB interface.

Every electronics project needs power. You can spend a lot of time building supplies or a lot of money on batteries. If you build projects to use in your lab you can use one supply with a lot of projects plugged into it.

I've only had to solder a couple of SMT chips, and though my attempts have worked out for me, it's always been a combination of frustration and fear that I'm damaging the IC.

In this Instructable I will show you how to make a simple infra red (IR) detector. When your TV stops responding to the remote it is hard to tell if the TV is broken or the remote doesn't work.

Check out Angela Yuan's Etch-A-Scetch Clock. An Arduino powers a few stepper motors that clear the screen once a minute and then draw the current time.

If you are into building and playing around with tube radios like I am, you have probably have a similar problem as I do with powering them. Most of the old circuits were designed to run on high voltage b batteries which are no longer available.

Big thanks to NachoMahma for the wire, without him it wouldn't be possible for this experiment. This was an experiment to make a AA fuel cell with house hold parts (plus platinum Wire), but it failed.
