  • £5 Friday, a silly series where I take a look at interesting things you can pick up for £5 or less from the interwebs.
    Don't judge, this is just a bit of fun, I felt like I needed a change so I dragged this old thing out. I am sure you will have a hundred different uses form a module like this.

    I am going to have to try one of these. I've had the board sitting in my drawer for about a year. Thanks for sharing! Appreciated that you kept in the various screw ups/minor hiccups!

    I find it easier to solder cables on pinheaders on the backside, where there already is solderpaste.

    Actually if you remove the microphone and connect an audio input instead it works just fine, it can record what you playing into it.

    I've just found one of these units languishing in a draw. I have a use for it but there seems to be quite a lot of (not so) background noise on the recorder's playback. Is this normal, do you know, and can it be tamed? Enjoyed your video - thanks!

    FT mode, when short FT jumper, that means all sounds to MIC will direct playback
    to Speaker.

    Cool! If you press the PLAYE button again before the recorded audio has run its length, will it immediately start over? For example, could you do a rapid fire laser sound if you press the PLAYE button rapidly?

    Hi, quick question. How do you change the batteries? I have this music box (not a traditional one, one with this module in it) and it won't play well, I think it's because of the battery but they are in this metal casing that I can't get into...

    • @DavidWatts
      @DavidWatts  4 роки тому

      Hmmm, I haven't seen a setup like that before. It sounds like you will just need to replace the batteries, cutting it out potentially.

      Simply connect to the VCC and GRD pins that are clearly marked on the board that you own. Everything you need to know will be listed on the webpage from where you purchased it.

    It will soon be (or is already) a legal requirement in Europe to have some sound emanating from electric vehicles at very slow speeds. You mention speech recording but, presumably, a low frequency recording of a motor sound could be made.
    Also, would it be possible to tap into the PLAY switch to have a remote button on the vehicle dashboard? Thanks.

    • @DavidWatts
      @DavidWatts  4 роки тому +1

      Sure that sounds possible. The car running off 12v would be your biggest stumbling block. A playing card in the spokes worked well on my bike, we need a 2020 car version!

    The battery box supplies 6 volts. Is that not too high for the board? With my ISD1820 I took 5V regulated power off a Basic Stamp board.

    • @DavidWatts
      @DavidWatts  4 роки тому

      Those were NiMh cells, so would likely have been kicking out around 5-5.5v. The ISD1820 can run from up to 7v according to the datasheet but that is a maximum value, normal operation is stated as 2.7-4.5v.

      @@DavidWatts Thanks. What is the theory behind the Pringles tube that causes the volume to increase to such an extent? (Using the supplied speaker.) Could I use a small wooden box from e.g. thin plywood and cut a hole in it for the supplied speaker?

      I think it just increases the area that reverberates giving a louder base sound.

      I believe they were rechargeable batteries so 4.8-5.2v is a reasonable figure for them.
