  Re: Whats wrong with Brickshelf?
 
(...) By now I think the intermittent outages and neglect have quite clearly established that Brickshelf is not a robust and reliable service (ie, it is dying if not already essentially dead). Unfortunate, but that's my view. Jim (15 years ago, 23-Nov-09, to lugnet.general)
 
  Whats wrong with Brickshelf?
 
Hi all, Some of our club members noticed that it's no longer possible to upload to Brickshelf. Anyone any idea whats happening? Thanks Ludo (15 years ago, 22-Nov-09, to lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Reducing voltage
 
(...) Hello, you can put AC or DC voltage at the input of the regulator with no problem as long as you don't put more than 9VAC~14VDC. The internal circuit will take both. So a quick fix that put 4.5~5V DC at the input will ouput about 3~3.2VDC at (...) (15 years ago, 23-Nov-09, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: Reducing voltage
 
(...) I think this is how you want to do it. A simple solution would be to go to Radio Shack, and buy a couple large ceramic resistors. (not sure the values you'd want, but something low).

Our club lets kids run the controller for one of the lines when we do certain events (like, right now, with Detroit Festival of Trees), but we could use a way to forcibly limit the speed on the line that they're allowed to run.
