>>oh wait you can't connect a motor to the arduino because that fries it What is a relay?
Evan Wood
its a basic switch that allows you to control say, a 5v 10amp pump, with a very small amount of current for the switch from the mcu
John Cooper
Which part of "buy shit that together costs 4x as much as the arduino" did you think doesn't include a relay, mongs?
Christopher Diaz
How do you expect to handle a device that draws a lot of current without these devices? People didn't invent them for fun they exist because they need to.

> 5V from an arduino Nigga is you retarded in the head?
$5 for 10 ridiculously overspecced mosfets. If you already have a power supply that's probably all you need.
Nicholas Sanders
where can you find $0.10 arduino clones?
Aiden Long
the internet

>No wonder nerdshit never takes off. it has >buy shit that together costs 4x as much jeez just get a small transistor you dump fuck or a vacuum tube if you wanna look fancy but you'll probably get yourself killed with that if you can't even search how to drive a motor with an arduino

>be retarded >be retarded Wow. What a surprise.
Camden Bailey
OP where is that pic from? That's me.
Ryder Johnson
arduino nano can cost down 50ct a piece

Landon Brown
where the fuck do you think he got the arduino clone from?
Benjamin Hernandez
Ebay, importers hawk that shit at 3-5 times the price on aliexpress.

>mixing the logic controller with the electromagnetic parts
>why doesn’t this thing do something it wasn’t designed to do? Stick your dick in the pump and then wire it to a wall jack
Jayden Diaz
Very fun post.
Jacob Cook
have you seen the new model? has integrated wifi and battery charging in it, all in one and close the size of an pro micro, also you voltage problem is clearly your fault those devices are intended to work with very low volts and you pushed it over the limit
