I would love to see how my fractal generator runs on the Pandora... ;) While I'm sure it may not be interesting for most, could you make me a short clip so that I can see just how fast/slow it is? even if you don't publish it and just put it on a file sharing site and PM me a link that would...

Stan, it actually makes sense (to my twisted mind), the actual state of the battery is not only a matter of the voltage, but rather a combination of the voltage with the current draw. There's probably some sort of math being done on the reported voltage vs. the current draw at that moment to...

I'm wondering if it's a joke or did you finally crack that time machine problem? ;) In a bit of a mess myself, looks like I'll be relocating to China for 18 months starting December (around mid December). I live in Israel and am not keen on changing my order address at this point to China...

Here's another silly thought, hire help for her? It sounds like you might be losing money because she's so over-worked, why not invest in a temp who helps her with all the trivial stuff like going through emails and sorting them by priority? Shouldn't be too expensive...

heh, you mean time for a natural disaster... ;)

Thank you ED, as always, straight answers are what we've grown to expect from you... I hope you know this is an invaluable asset to the project, no disrespect to any of the others, but you represent (to me) the reason I am still waiting after more than 2 years.

OK... and three days later? Any word from Michael?

Sounds to me like the battery swelled up a bit (LiPo batteries do that sometimes), it may have even caused the case to part (the swelling can be significant from the batteries I had seen swell). if that is the case, I would stop using the battery, while I don't think calling it a time-bomb is...

one problem with changing production companies is that michael weston needs to teach them how to make a pandora again and then go through test runs again.

hmm... the board company IS in the US... However, I'm guessing there's no written contract with dates to hold them to..

Hey there Urjaman, I did some researching, I take it back, you are correct, cells in parallel do not require balancing. I was thinking RC, in 99% of RC cases we use 2, 3 or more cells in series to get a higher voltage for a higher overall wattage. Thanks for clearing it up.

What I meant in my last statement is that the higher your current draw, the sooner you will see a difference in the battery voltage. That said, voltage of the battery under load is the best indicator of the battery's capacity, when you take away the load, it might go back up to a higher...

A word of caution, do not underestimate cell balancing... Your problem is actually not that you'll end up with a battery half full, it is that you'll end up with an exploding battery. When you connect them in parallel and one goes out of balance, the simple charging circuits (at least the ones...

Hey there, just a little piece of information from dealing with LiPo batteries on RC planes. The voltage will always drop as the current draw goes up, usually, this is how the component in charge of stopping the current draw to prevent damage to the battery (at least in planes) decides when to...

Great! thanks for the arcade mode, I'll try it on with my son... ;) On the PC for now though...

don't get me wrong ed, i am very happy with having you so active on the boards, without you this two year wait would be impossible. You make it bearable. :) i was just commenting to the fact that there are things only craig knows (like what is the status of the units he is making) to which...

Oh of course it's not, I never said it was, just felt like daddy is more interested in the new kid... ;) It's just that when I see a lot of posts about Craig without him stepping in to tell us his side, it makes me feel like he has left these forums as well...

Is it just me or is Craig much more into the iCP than the Pandora these days? Just look at alec's scrubber.... :(

bummer dude... good luck recovering... Use an online service, they are free, you know... :) I should know, I lost my entire code for my fractal generator once, luckily I had an old version of it on my work laptop, only lost a few months of work... ;)
