Metal-made steps have high load-bearing capacity but don’t offer enough traction making their surface tend to be slippery, especially when wet. RV step covers are one of the essential accessories of an RV providing grip on the slippery metallic surface to safely step into the vehicle along with preventing dirt tracking by catching the mud, dirt, and other debris from outside, irrespective of the outside weather. Before investing in an RV step cover, we suggest you go through the deciding key factors- its material, size, and installation method....

Size: To ensure that you cover up all of your tool box drawers, having enough tool box drawer liners for the same is quite important. Hence, all of them have a size rating which is given as 16 inch x 16 feet, 20 inch x 25 feet, and even 24 inch x 30 feet where a higher size is always better for larger tool box drawers. Material: Even if you have a large-sized tool box drawer liner, it will not be useful if it is not made out of a high-quality material....

Length: Since most decorative LED lights are available in the form of a strip or string lights, you should consider its length especially if you want to cover up a large area. While most blue LED lights have a length of around 15 to 20 feet, there are also much larger options at 35 feet, 50 feet, and even 65 feet where you can pick the one best suited for your requirements....

After all, the worst experience one can have on a hot summer day is walking into the room to escape the heat only to find out the air vents of the AC are blowing hot air. But the question remains, what causes your AC to blow hot air? And how can you stop it? In this article, we will share 13 reasons why an AC blows hot air. How Does an AC work?...

We already made a similar comparison but with respect to other popular color temperatures i.e., 4000K and 5000K. If you are interested to find the differences and use cases, then read the 4000K vs 5000K Color Temperature Comparison Guide. A Brief Note on Color Temperatures Using temperature to define the color of the light is a popular (and scientific) method. This is because, in the days of incandescence, the temperature of the light source and the color it emits are directly proportional....

Current Rating: Because a circuit breaker panel has to handle the complete electrical load of your home or office, it needs to support a high current. For the same, you can check their current rating which is generally given as up to 50 amps, up to 125 amps, and others where a higher rating is always better. Number of Spaces: As a circuit breaker panel is used to install circuit breakers inside it, making sure that you can fit all of them inside it properly is highly important....

However, when you opt for such high-speed internet plans, you must check whether you have the right modem for it or not. If not, you can simply grab one from our list as we have shortlisted some of the best gigabit modems from the market on the basis of the following factors such as: Broadband Standard: The broadband standard that the modem uses makes a huge impact on the way it performs....

Design: One of the most attractive aspects of a single speed bike is its simplicity of construction. This includes an oversimplified design that makes the bike the right option for a wide range of users. However, this benefit is only available on bikes that feature a simple frame design along with a single speed drivetrain configuration. Wheels: As there is not a lot to check on a single speed bike, its wheel becomes one of the major factors that affect its performance as well as compatibility....

Power Capacity: With each bass tube, you will find multiple power ratings. Usually, there are 2 factors that you need to consider as far as the power capacity is concerned that are peak power and RMS power capacity. To put it simply, the peak power is a momentary high power capacity of the speaker whereas the RMS power is the continuous output capacity. Frequency Response: Apart from the power capacity, you should also check the frequency range to which the bass tube will be able to respond....

Since different refrigerator brands have their own proprietary fridge water filters, it makes it very difficult to choose your ideal water filter. Let us look at the factors that you need to consider when buying a fridge water filter. Compatibility: The fridge water filters are not of the same size, and all of them are not meant for all refrigerator brands. You need to check the number and name of the water filter required for your fridge....

If you want more information on individual Active Filters, read these posts: “Active High Pass Filter“, “Active Low Pass Filter“, “Active Band Pass Filter” and “Band Stop Filter“. Introduction We have already studied the Passive RC filters such as low pass, high pass and band pass filters using resistors and capacitors. The main disadvantage of these passive filters is the output signal is less as compare to the input signal, i....

An IR Receiver or an Infrared Receiver is an electronic device that receives information from an IR Remote, decodes the signal, and sends it to another device like a Microcontroller. A common application for IR Receivers is our TV Remotes. TV’s Remote Control sends infrared signals when any key or button is pressed. The IR Receiver, which is present at the front of the TV, will receive this signals and send them to a control circuit inside the TV after decoding them....

Required Materials Arduino Lilypad (x1) NeoPixel Ring – 12: (x1) USB Serial Converter(x1) 3.7V Lipo Battery (x1) USB Mini-B Cable (x1) JST 2-Pin Battery Connector Plug Female – Male (x1) Female/Female Jumper Wires (x6) Earring Hooks Circuit Diagram We will start the project by loading code into Lilypad first. In order to program the card, we need a Female/Female Jumper Cable and a USB Serial Converter. After installing the code, we will not have any work with USB Serial....

In this tutorial, we will try to understand the Blink program, its components, some syntax and some predefined functions. We will also try to make some changes to the original Blink sketch and see what difference it makes to the output. For this, we need to start the Arduino IDE (with Arduino UNO board already connected to the computer) and open the blink sketch. In the sketch shown above, we can see some lines in grey color in the top of the sketch and some colorful lines in the bottom of the sketch....

There are two types of counters Synchronous and 2) Asynchronous. Asynchronous Counters Asynchronous counters are those whose output is free from the clock signal. Because the flip flops in asynchronous counters are supplied with different clock signals, there may be delay in producing output. The required number of logic gates to design asynchronous counters is very less. So they are simple in design. Another name for Asynchronous counters is “Ripple counters”....

Since its introduction, Arduino took the electronics industry by storm with a wide range of people getting involved in it like electronics hobbyists, students, artists, designers, experts in electronics and even people without any experience in electronics. We developed a tutorial for Arduino in order to bring this open – source platform to more audience. The aim of this course is to introduce the concept of Arduino and go through the steps and process involved in the development of Arduino based projects by understanding the different hardware and software features of the Arduino environment....

Before going in to the details of Basics of Microcontrollers, you need to know what a Microcontroller is. Microcontrollers are similar to Microprocessors, but they have few additional components on the same chip. What is a Microcontroller? A Microcontroller is a VLSI (Very Large Scale Integration) Integrated Circuit (IC) that contains electronic computing unit and logic unit (combinedly known as CPU), Memory (Program Memory and Data Memory), I/O Ports (Input / Output Ports) and few other components integrated on a single chip....
