  RCX Battery Source
 
Hi All, My old cellular "bag-phone" died a while back and I replaced it with a nice teeny tiny PCS phone. I had bought the 12V 2.3Ah sealed lead battery as an option with the original phone. It is WAY smaller than the 4Ah monsters I'm using for (...) (25 years ago, 25-Aug-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Train doors and windows
 
Add me to your list, So what can we expect to pay for train windows and doors? If $1.00 or $2.00 each, I'll take 20 of each in all colours provided they come with clear split glass. We also need to remember that the other hard parts to get are low (...) (25 years ago, 25-Aug-99, to lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Train doors and windows
 
I'm very interested in the train windows (especially in white) doors (white) and bases. If this really gets off the ground, count me in. Kevin (25 years ago, 25-Aug-99, to lugnet.trains)

(...) The debouncing isn't the real problem, it's the variable resistance as the switch is being pressed which alaises the touch sensor. By building a MUX circuit which does thresholding and debouncing you effectively make the system way more (...) (25 years ago, 25-Aug-99, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: Train doors and windows
 
(...) If this is real I'm definitely interested, though I don't think we should flood the newsgroup with posts. I was going to wait for more indication that this was real, and then see if someone (like Larry) made an offer to collect requests, and (...) (25 years ago, 25-Aug-99, to lugnet.trains)
 
  RE: touch sensors aren't just switches (was Re: ideas for a RIS 2.0
 
You could always make a multiplexing circuit which does the thresholding and debouncing for you. Once the status of each switch has been turned into a binary state you could then use resistors to create a sort of D/A which works reliably -- just as (...)
