[mini project] Board of Voltage

xanadu

• Mini Voltmeter(s) (found all over eBay)
• 3 oz Lead Disk Fishing Sinker
• ePVC (USPlastics)
• Hot Glue
• Shrink Wrap
• Crimp on Pins

These little inexpensive voltmeters are great, but they tend to flop around. I decided to put an end to that and thought I'd share what I did.

Using hot glue I built a little stand with a 3oz lead weight to anchor it down. It works very well because it is mobile yet much more stationary. It is easy to see from across the room.

I like the Board of Voltage!

Much more useful than mine which are still in bags, stuffed in a box someplace. Now that I have a mini-project idea, maybe I'll use them!!

Thanks!

Thanks. I left out the most important part, the Space Antenna.
