How fast is this …
How fast is this device on average?
Could be possible to download a midi file from a specific server and save it to an SD card? is it too slow for this task?Thank you, very …
Thank you, very very nice and clean tutorialzunayed001 ( meter …
zunayed001 ( meter bridge ) a standard 1-ma meter will have a standard internal resistance — you simple do a resistor bridge with the various values so that the voltage across the resistor between the meter leads has a correct portion of the current — you have to do the math so that the meter does not get burntThanks for the …
Thanks for the ideas of how to use the Arduino with the ethernet shield – I just ordered one myself 🙂what about the …
what about the number of unmoderated comments in wordpress, notifications on facebook, new videos in youtube subscriptions ?can u make ur own …
can u make ur own phone? built in tv, 20MP camera, wifi, very nice speakers, touch screen, massager, sofa, bed, water, food, and everyyything else. U’re just so genius. *__*@Pettetje dito
@Pettetje ditoAwesome — going to …
Awesome — going to try this with the listener count on an icecast serverWow. Go cure cancer.

Go to your address bar, after the word YOU and before the word TUBE, type in “win” then press enteri feel so dumb now

I have no idea what you are talking about but I really like listening to you!@zunayed001

Simple Ohm’s Law: I = E/R
You want 1 milliamp, maximum. The arduino’s maximum output will slightly less than 5v. Thus, you’d want slightly less than 5,000 ohms. 4.7K is a standard value, and works nicely. You could get fancy and use a 5K trimpot, to calibrate your meter to full scale when the Arduino is outputting a 255 on the PWM line.I wonder, could you …
I wonder, could you put an LCD panel behind the meter and use that as the display of scale, then also rotate between various meters every few seconds while also alternating the LCD accordingly? I suppose you’d also want to paint the needle another color so that it would contrast better against the LCD.Does this make it a “multi-meter”?
great post, a …
great post, a little disappointing you only have three!How did you …
How did you determine the value of the resistor for the ammeter?Really clever …
Really clever person!Great demo! I’m …
Great demo! I’m going to try and use it with seven segment display to show the count, and maybe also try to cycle through different things i.e. google reader count, email count etc…
will link when I complete it! but first, time to order the ethernet shieldThat’s a great demo …
That’s a great demo. Would love to try with my new Ethernet shield.Thanks a lot!
Most …
Thanks a lot!
Most importantly though, thanks for suggesting what to do if I doesn’t work as expected.@dancevideo2 I’d …
@dancevideo2 I’d love to extend the project so that it has swappable backplates so that you can easily change the different scales you use.Very nice! I was …
Very nice! I was expecting to see a customized backplate for the meter, though, labelled “1 message”, “2 messages”, … (or maybe on a log scale?)endless …
endless possibilities 🙂thanks for the video!
