1·12 days agoMy apologies; I assumed COBs were a single chip. I had to search it to be certain. So it’s single\multiple raw led chip(s) [“bonded directly to the die”] inside a substrate as a single encapsulation package. In a SMD package the final encapsulation is just a lens.
Someone correct me if I’m mistaken.
Cheers.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•My apartment building gives me free water but I pay for electricity. What if I run the faucet nonstop and rig up a hydro turbine in my bathtub to generate my power from it?
1·12 days agoTrue – it would require a external heat source (wood, gas, coal, concentrated solar, etc) to boil water for turbine generated electricity.

2·12 days agoThey go out of their way to make a product look like cob lights. But I never found a true COB led in cheapo lights. It’s always a row of tiny leds under yellow tape.
For curiosity tinkering, grab some dark film (or a stack of 3 sunglasses lens, turn on the light, and be amazed just how teeny tiny the led die chips really are.
Similarity, about 5 to 8 tiny led chips are inside the filaments of these kinds of lights…

Was surprised xkcd didn’t mention steam boiler turbines.

The exercise was nice. But the sound of my mom falling off backwards on a bicycle will never get out of my head. She was okay, but ss a kid, still haunting.

3·14 days agoA family of opossums visited recently. This time of year my garden usually gets an abundance of snails and worms – because of the rain. But this year, none! I guess they had an absolute feast. My overwintering succulents and Canna plants were not eaten to the ground. So spring flowering will be awesome.
If your exposition lasts longer than 8 hours consult your pyrotechnician.
I remember the late Ben Underwood whom had the same talent. One bit stuck with me comes to mind when Ben was walking the neighborhood with a tv reporter… “What’s to my right”, reporter asks. “{Click click} It’s the side of a house, uh with stuff in front of it.”, and Ben replies with more detail, “{click click} …cans, yup garbage cans.”
