[Dorset] small generator.

2022-04-05 Thread Peter Merchant

I have been playing around recently with trying to build a wind speed measuring 
setup.  This video shows a cup anemometer and a tulip anemometer.  
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/g-kcUUfxBrw

Does anybody know of a small dc generator that I could attach one of these to 
in order to measure the speed as a DC value. The other alternative is to use my 
defunct bicycle odometer reed switch and magnet.


Thanks,

Peter

This arrived this morning and i can confirm that it appears to work well on

Good. Enjoy.

[Dorset] Next Meeting - Tonight at 8 pm

2022-04-05 Thread Terry Coles
All,

The next Online Meeting is tonight at 8 pm using Jitsi.

Simply click on the following link and you will be taken to the Meeting 
using your default browser:

https://meet.jit.si/dorset-lug

Chrome or Chromium are probably better than Firefox for using Jitsi.  An 
alternative to installing one of those two is to obtain it bundled especially 
for Jitsi from:

https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet-electron/releases

This should be as simple as

wget -q https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet-electron/releases/latest/
download/jitsi-meet-x86_64.AppImage
chmod +x jitsi-meet-x86_64.AppImage
./jitsi-meet-x86_64.AppImage

and then entering ‘dorset-lug’ as the meeting ID.

Hope to see you all this evening.
