I think I've made my point.

The crash for cash aspect isn't relevent - while their actions may have been fraudulent, a driver may need to do an emergency stop at any time for many reasons, a child, an animal etc. in the road. You should be able to react to such events in a timely manor. You do not need to be "an expert"...

Ah yes - I forgot about the 4th category: d) the inability to accept that you fell into one (or more) of the first three categories.

Yes, everyone who falls into one or more of three categories I mentioned above. Yes it can, by not falling into one or more of the afore mentioned categories.

That statement is entirely inaccurate. It should have read something like: My OE unit was taken out when I crashed into someone who stopped dead infront of me, because I was (insert applicable phrase(s) from below) a) driving too close to them with regard to speed/conditions b) not paying...

Smart bulbs should have some sort of FCC ID on them, shouldn't they?

Electrolube HTC is what I would use.

The fuse carriers should have a slot on both sides?

I think I may have cracked it! Once I'd worked out I needed to instal millisDelay into the library, the changes were actually quite simple. I've also reduced the current sample period by a second - all good. The millis overflow issue shouldn't affect it either, as the workbench is switched off...

Many thanks for everyone's help so far. Thanks for the link, I think I've stumbled across that page already - embarrassingly, it didn't offer me any eureka moments. I will study it again & see if any pennies drop. That would be fantastic if you get a chance! Many thanks. My soldering iron...

No need to apologise - I need all the help I can get! I'll hopefully get back onto this tomorrow evening. Many, many thanks for your help so far.

If I can get it to compile, I'm uploading it & testing it in a real world environment.

#define CURRENT_SENSOR_PIN A0 // Current sensor is connected to analog pin A0 #define RELAY_PIN 2 // Relay module is connected to digital pin 2 #define RELAY_LOGIC LOW //Set to LOW if your relay is activated by a ground signal. Set to HIGH if your relay is activated by a 5V signal. If your relay...

I wish to trigger a fume extraction unit when I pick up my soldering iron. The iron is a JBC that is set to hibernate (no heat) when in the holder. I have the Arduino connected to a current sensor to monitor the extra current drawn when the iron is heating. I took the Arduino code from a guy who...

I don't suppose anyone on here is handy with Arduino code writing? I'm completely new to code writing & struggling to translate everything I've read/watched into something that makes sense! I've used somebody else's code as a template & made some adjustments to certain parameters. This works to...
