Re: Extended charging times on your controller
To give this topic its dues, this mod is one of QFM’s most popular.
I subsequently refined it to include “switching” by means of
a mercury switch… this was posted on the old Ausmicro before
xmas but got lost with the hack.
Here, I’ve still got the pix though…
1) I removed the original 47uF cap… and piggybacked a 2nd 47uF
to it (basic electronics 101… caps ‘add’ when in parallel).
2) resoldered it back on with a mercury switch in-line with the
2nd cap… so put it at the correct angles, its turned on/off
thus in/out of circuit. When its out, just the original 47uF
does all the work.
3) reinstall it all back in the case; mine charges at 2X whilst
the TX is standing up, normal 1X whilst its lying down.
This TX was the one I carried to the Melbourne meet, fellas.
You folks were too busy with that Keyence to notice I’d bet… 🙂
… and whilst I had all the soldering gear out, why not :-
