Long overdue blog update! TWT 20, Mini 10, and T3 001!
Hello Everyone,
June turned out to be a very stressful and sad month, because of that I fell a bit behind on updating here. From June 19th until July 1st I was away from my computer and all I had for editing was some pre-recorded footage and my laptop (which did not make editing/rendering video pleasant). I apologize if the two videos I released were of poorer quality, I also couldn't use one of my editing tools.
I am back now though, and will try to keep this up to date! I changed the blog's theme, the orange on grey was getting a bit annoying for me, so I swapped to blue on grey since that is more or less my Tinkering With Terrius channel colours.
On June 21st I posted TWT #20, which was a review of the Neoteck NTK017/NT8233D Pro. The meter it self seemed okay, but inside the PCB was clearly designed down to a specific cost. The traces for the inputs were very narrow, and the only input protection was a single PTC. I was quite surprised as I had expected to see it be a variant of the MS8233D PCB that was in the Proster meter. The manufacturer mark on the PCB was the same for all of the meters, perhaps this is just their new cheaper design.
On June 29th I posted Mini #10, I took a quick look at the Tacklife DM02A meter, and inside it was basically identical to the NT8233D.
On July 4th I started a new series called Terrius Talks Tech, or T₃ for short. T₃ is going to be more of a Vlog and will be posted whenever I get inspired by a tech news story or have a video that doesn't fit into my main TWT electronics series. It is basically a fun side project for me and I have a few ideas for future episodes. It won't have a set schedule but I am positive they will not be posted on Thursdays.
T₃ 001 was inspired by some claims that were circulating the tech sites over the weekend about AMD Ryzen, and "Its Largest Quarterly Share Gain in History".
