[volt-nuts] Ayrton Shunt does double duty.

Built a small temperature chamber using a Starbucks Refrigerator, Yokogawa Temperature controller, and PTC Heater (300 watt).  It covers 0 degrees C to 55 degrees C and has an RS-485 interface to the PC.  The compressor runs all the time, and the controller cycles the 300 watt heater as needed to stabilize the temperature. Here is a link to a YouTube video showing it:

No environmental chamber yet, have a Yokogawa controller and and an EIS
sensor simulator, going with a small box in the first for individual
components, but workload keeping me from completion of so many fun
projects. Now we are nearing grass cutting season here, the completion
of projects ratio will suffer.
