UAVs - Are you considering using them? As we all know UAV's are often in the news for a multitude of reasons. More specifically the multi-copter type are becoming very popular amongst hobbyists and increasingly for commercial photographic work. BI…
"Thanks very much for the feedback.."
"Please contact bluelight for a replacement unit"
"I'm pleased to announce that we now have stock again:http://www.bluelight-tech.com/Buying.htm"
"Special PCBs are needed for these parts which should be done in 2 weeks, then another week or so for the first new pcs to be completed, so should be in around 3 weeks time."
"Some interesting reading regarding solid state vs mechanical switches: http://www.ixysic.com/home/pdfs.nsf/www/AN-145.pdf/$file/AN-145.pdf"
"Hi Quadzimodo, we're also an electronics design house, if appropriate we can also look at designing as special switch for you."
"Hi Stuart, one way only I'm afraid. It will handle inductive loads though, but the reverse current is just dissipated away."
"Hi Martin, I'm not sure but it doesn't look like solid state solution, looks more like a magnetic relay of some sort"
"We achieve an internal on resistance of 0.00065 ohm, so heating is very much minimized. For the BL-Smart70SW a heat sink (other than the one already inside the unit) should not be necessary. The next version, the BL-Smart100SW will need one for…"
"Good point about the inrush current."
"A mechanical switch for such high currents would be very big indeed. To use a smaller mechanical switch would be very dangerous."
"Hi Chris, yes anything above 3.3 v will shut it off, anything below about 2v will switch it on"
"Thanks BacklashRC :-)"
"Hi Quadzimodo, this takes a bit of getting one's head around! I can see how to do with 3 switches but not 2. Let me give it further thought."
"Hi Hein du Plessis, You can connect the switch in series mode but then you'd need to split the battery. e.g. for a 10s you'd need two 5 cell batteries instead - with the switch in the middle. Please see page 4 of our user manual here"
