BillyZ said:Very nice! Your explanation of the purpose of the 555 made perfect sense, didn't find it confusing at all.
BillyZ said:couple of quick questions.
BillyZ said:what did all the parts combined cost, and what would you charge to put 1 together for me?
Well, thank you!BillyZ said:Thanks Serge! I'd say you're english is just fine.
Umm.... Usually, it works the other way around. Low US price, MUCH higher CDN price. Eh!BillyZ said:$50 canadian, right? So I could expect to pay about $75ish U.S. thats not bad.
It's not the same type I have but it will certainly do the job.BillyZ said:You said, "radio shack type" for the CB; would the following be large enough?

Yes, we have the same voltage and cycle: 115/120 @ 60 Hz.BillyZ said:i had a quick thought. I think U.S. and Canada have the same power supply levels. But just to be sure i won't need to make further adjustments, what is the power coming out of your typical socket in canada?
By your command! Check the following pictures. Unfortunately, unlike with my 35 mm, I cannot do macro photography with this digital camera, but it should give a good idea.BillyZ said:any chance we could get a peek at the inside of
yours?
uhhh yea.. I don't know WHERE my head was on that one. I think I just applied the typical 50% backwards. So then 35-40$ is even better!Umm.... Usually, it works the other way around. Low US price, MUCH higher CDN price. Eh!
BillyZ said:what are your thoughts on additional resistance/loss of a long run on the float switches? If the leads on those switches were say... 40-50 feet (apx 15 meters), would the additional resistance on the wire call for any adjustments? I'm considering using this rig on an RO unit in my basement, but filling the tank/sump in my living room. The lead runs would be about that length (to keep the run clean)
Thanks yet again!
