Don't know if it's the hub or something else. Hasu might have better idea, as he did HHKB dissection long time ago. What's your method? Reading power consumption from the smart battery of an unplugged laptop. At least the ballpark should be right. But I'll have to reconsider the HHKB as a travel key...

Power consumption of keyboards
Can't remember this discussed so far.
As a quick, dirty and not very reliable experiment, I checked the increase of power consumption from HHKB Pro2, measured by the smart battery of a laptop. Roughly 0.7 - 0.8 W reported. That's quite much.

Is it, though? My G84-4400 was NIB (albeit a battered box) and the G84-4100 was used. In both cases we prefer the NIB keyboard to the used one. That could be valid reason. The G84-4400 I got was from industrial environment, so fine dust might've entered with time. G84-4100 after about half a year w...

That's pretty much a must for a place that handles PCB/IC work. And the floor requires periodical maintenance.Findecanor wrote: ↑BTW, I've worked at a place that had an antistatic floor.

That mill is driven by stepper motors, right?

@matt3o: I was using Cygwin more than a decade ago, probably on XP. Was mostly fine, except for being very slow. Have you tried contacting old-school CNC users about some old but useful software (even DOS)? About twenty years ago I was developing CNCs, and while never bothered with CAD software, the...

Looking for the following keys:
I don't know how I skipped ordering a "Text Pro" set.
Optionally a Space Invader, but the demand for those seems to be too high.
Code: Select all
1.75u CONTROL - 1x
1.5u ALT - 2x
1.25u FN - 2x

Some LEDs are bright enough even at 2-3 mA, you can go further down just for indication. But with the classic series (current limiting) resistor additional energy is wasted in the resistor itself, as the total will be V*I anyway. With 5V power supply and 2mA current that still makes good 10mW power ...

Web is not my area of expertise, so I can't comment much with my limited knowledge. The caching seems plausible, although DT before year or so really had the right behaviour for unread topics' icons. Actually, initially that's what caught my attention - a proper behaviour, since the few other forums...

Unfortunately, no. The whole browser storage is volatile (tmpfs). Any idea how to debug the BACK issue? Is it happening to me only? I change the layout, then dive into some thread, then use the browser's BACK function to return and the layout is thumbnail again. There is also some other bug which cr...

The keycap styling comes from the style of the earlier Apple IIc, which first used Apple’s switches, and then switched to Alps switches later, right? Apple IIc keyboard has flat profile, unlike the A9M0330. I just cleaned one these days, early model - the only stabilizer was on the space bar. :) Ke...
