I just treated me with an early xmas present, should go well with my other Metcal SSTS-PS2V.

Actually think i'll switch the Talon MX to use my singleport SSTS-PS2V , and use the MX500P with the soldring iron.

 

Anyone else "cheated santa" early ??

I would like the HTC Vive! The office I work in owns an Oculus Rift DK2 (old.... old) and I built a skid steer driving simulator with it (with chair controls) but from what I've seen of the HTC, the Rift seems "meh."

Alien soldering iron? Don't the aliens object to being soldered?

Hope it doesn't go rusty ... 

Top Tips:

  1. How to properly post source code - see: https://www.avrfreaks.net/comment... - also how to properly include images/pictures
  2. "Garbage" characters on a serial terminal are (almost?) invariably due to wrong baud rate - see: https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/serial-communication
  3. Wrong baud rate is usually due to not running at the speed you thought; check by blinking a LED to see if you get the speed you expected
  4. Difference between a crystal, and a crystal oscillator: https://www.avrfreaks.net/comment...
  5. When your question is resolved, mark the solution: https://www.avrfreaks.net/comment...

Nice job balancing the Metcal on your table top.

 

I usually use a flat workbench!  cheeky

 

Enjoy your new Metcal, it is certainly nice to have good tools to work with!

 

All I want for Christmas is my 3 Butterflies I ordered from Smiley!

I mean this soldering iron is alien made, not that it should solder aliens
