If you need a precision voltage source, you have three options. You can spend thousands of dollars and buy a lab instrument from a reputable company, you can spend hundreds and get an amazing enthusiast-grade device from Ian Johnston, or... If you're a cheap ass like me, you can build your own device that might just be enough for your use case at a fraction of the cost, and with hours and hours of fun included for free. Guess what we're going to do!

26 AWG solid copper wire: the perfect choice for hand-soldered Arduino projects
This post is my little token of appreciation for the 26 AWG solid core copper wire. Perfect for creating permanent version of Arduino projects, or if not perfect, then at least much simpler than wire wrapping and much, much more practical than using solder traces. Man, I love 26 AWG solid core.
Quick look: Voltage drift / instability on Ruideng RD6006 power supply
This post is a quick record of voltage drift / variations I noticed during recent experiments with using a MOSFET as a voltage-controlled resistor, where the MOSFET's Gate-Source voltage was driven by the Ruideng RD6006(W) DC-DC power supply.
Measuring breadboard wiring resistance: how bad is bad?
This article is a brief record of my early breadboard wiring adventures, because learning things the hard way is fun! You may also read the related post if you wish:
