Europe by Motorhome Introduction: Between mid-March and mid-December 2010 we traveled roughly 14,000 miles by motorhome through portions of twelve countries in western Europe. This Journal is intended to summarize our experiences and the knowledge we’ve gained for the benefit of other motorhome travelers. It will try to provide information of particular interest to those who either are already touring Europe by motorhome or might be considering doing so. In 2011, between late February and the end of November, we traveled across southern Europe to the Balkan states and Bulgaria. In 2012, we arrived around April 1st and departed mid-December. General Summary: In order to minimize repetition, many items can be covered in a summary of motorhome travel considerations generally applicable throughout european countries. In 2011, we spent additional time in Portugal, Spain and France and visited nine countries for the first time: Morocco, Italy, Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia, Serbia, Bulgaria, Montenegro and Macedonia.
Lecteur de carte magnétique - PS / 2 Interface - 3 Tracks (1 & 2 & 3) ID: 853 à 59,95 $: Industries Adafruit, unique et amusant bricolage électronique et kits Decode what's hidden on your credit cards, or use it for an access system - this mag-stripe card reader can decode all three tracks! We like this small and easy to use mag-stripe reader for being so microcontroller-friendly. Instead of a USB port, it has a PS/2 interface and acts like a 'keyboard'. In fact, its designed to be a 'pass through'/'keyboard wedge' device for point-of-sale terminals. What's nice about PS/2 is that it uses a single connector for power and data, and uses two data pins.
Us Aperçu | BeagleBone New from the fine people who have brought us the Beagle Board, we now have a smaller, lighter, but powerful single board linux computer, Beagle Bone! We like this move to a more compact and integrated SBC. For example, there is onboard Ethernet and USB host, as well as a USB client interface (a FTDI chip for shell access). It even comes preloaded with Angstrom Linux on the 4 GB microSD card! The Beagle Bone is a great step up from microcontrollers (such as AVR, PIC, ARM Cortex M3, 8051, Propeller, etc) to microcomputers. The Bone also has great accessories built in, such as onboard Ethernet with 10/100M connectivity, mini USB port with TTL serial converter, JTAG debugger for advanced hacking, USB A host port for connecting a hub/WiFi/etc, power management IC that keeps the board safe from a misplugged adapter, and tons of 0.1" spaced breakouts

Experienced based tips 1 Last Update: January 2010 This page is based on tips that we have picked up over the last year – hope they are useful and frugal! Shopping Maybe its us, but some things we need and can’t get abroad. SquashBiscuitsBreakfast cereal (okay – I’m very fussy!) At Aires etc Always wear gloves when handling tapes etc near waste facilities. Fuel Almost everywhere is chepaer than the UK for diesel! Parking We tend to park in supermarket car parks for free when going to major towns, and virtually never pay for parking. Internet If you use a WiFi scanner on a mobile phone, it is almost certain to get free WiFi in any small town with ease. What to take Less than you think! Eating / Drinking Take decent crockery and glasses. Power We do not have an inverter and do not need one.
Contacteur magnétique (capteur de porte) ID: 375 - $ 4.00: Adafruit Industries, uniques et d'amusement de l'électronique de bricolage et trousses This sensor is essentially a reed switch, encased in an ABS plastic shell. Normally the reed is 'open' (no connection between the two wires). The other half is a magnet. Useful Info For our other tips, see our tip index here I have been asked directly and answered a couple of times on forums, as to what we recommend to be the best laptop charger. Some chargers on eBay seem to only work when the engine is running, and some the quality is iffy to say the […] As of April 2012, the Caravan Club have released their 2012 version of their data for Caravan Club Sites, CLs and now their Caravan Club Abroad sites.

In order to make my life easier I’ve moved all download links to this page. Flights As expected, we did loads of research and loads of website trawling in order to find the best and cheapest flights for us.
Barebones AVR dev. carte d'identification: 174 - $ 12.00: Industries Adafruit, uniques et d'amusement électroniques et des kits de bricolage We took the business-card-sized AVR target board from Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories and added a few components to make an AVR dev board that has only the bare minimums! Comes unassembled with: Printed circuit boardBlank ATMEGA328 with internal 1 MHz oscillator selected (default)28-DIP socket6-pin ISP AVR programming header0.1uF ceramic capacitor5mm diffused red LEDResistor for LED We suggest using this board in conjunction with a USBtinyISP programmer (not included), and having the programmer provide USB power to the board. Of course, any programmer can be used, just make sure that you also power the target board somehow. To get you started, here is a 'hello world' zip file. It contains a C program, compiled .hex file and Makefile for a blinking LED connected to pin PB5. Wire up the board as shown here (don't forget the 3 jumper wires up top, they are essential!)
