One of the features of a channel page on YouTube is a trailer video. It’s a chance to introduce people who aren’t familiar with your channel. Subscribers won’t see it, only non-subscribers. To help explain AddOhms, we’ve created an introduction video. This replaces the first one where I introduced AddOhms from my lab. Since AddOhms is more about the drawing than a bald engineer on camera, I thought it made since to create an AddOhms-style introduction.

https://youtu.be/px8cUUbxnr0 There have been so many good questions coming in lately that I decided to take a break from normal topics and answer 3. Not sure the right frequency yet, but will probably do this every couple of episodes/videos.

I posted my first AddOhms video on YouTube on March 9, 2013. While in Germany on business, I ended the work week with dinner with some local friends. On our way to dinner I got the following comment notification. When I posted that first AddOhms video I had no idea how many more I’d make. In fact, I was afraid I’d run out of ideas after 3 or 4. With the success of #7 Arduino vs Raspberry Pi comparison video, I passed one of my first goals: 1,000 YouTube subscribers. I’m can also state that I have plenty of ideas to keep moving forward. Some of which you have provided.

https://youtu.be/81zNcctopBI What was the first electronic component you played with? It was probably a LED. They’re fun to blink in patterns or learn to fade. Most projects (and products) use them for useful indicators. LEDs add magic to every electronics project. Often not understand is what else you need to make that LED work correctly. Learn what current limiting resistors do for LEDs and watch what happens when you don’t use one.

In this video we look at what the difference between the two boards are and talk about what kinds of projects each are best at. Episode Notes This one has been a long time in the making for two reasons. First, I spent some time creating an opening sequence for the videos. Thanks to everyone who helped me decide on the right music to use.
