  I recently stumbled across your channel while researching maglocks and found your videos to be extremely helpful, inspiring, and entertaining. As a woodworker who has an interest in learning more about electrical components and creative ways to incorporate them into projects, I can't thank you enough. Looking forward to all your future videos! Cheers.

  Hi, great videos and content! Question regarding the DY-HV20T... the data sheet is a bit light on information... are you familiar with what logic level the pins are working at? I've seen videos with an Arduino connected directly, and discussions suggesting they work at 3.3V (hence I could then hook my esp32 directly to the board without a logic level shifter). Do you have any experience with this? Thanks in advance.

  You can do it with 74 series logic but by the time you've laid out such things with schmit ttriggering to avoid false sensing, and a set/reset latch to drive the mag lock, you may as well use a cheap microcontroller. Additionally the microcontroller can be programmed for any combination you like, and its much easier to change than discrete logic I've gone down this rabbit hole myself and yeah, "throw a microcontroller at it" is quite a valid solution now, both in terms of flexibility and cost.

  You could have a version of this puzzle where there's only like, 4 cards that have loads and loads of holes on them, and they're really long, and they have to push them in a certain distance (perhaps marked on the actual cards) and if you wanted to make it really really difficult, you could have a card that is on display, but can't be picked up, like, behind some plexiglass, and they have to imagine in their mind's eye what positions were being blocked and what symbol they'd expect to see. Too hard for most groups but if you made it really clear that the holes/non-holes related to different symbols or numbers, you could make a nice difficult version of this puzzle very easily

  i've tried making this but I am having an issue. many times when the actuator is extending or retracting the relay wil just flip and start doing the opposite and then it may flip back and forth multiple times. any suggestions? I have it hooked up to a reed switch to go up and a button to go down. I have used a multimeter on the reed switches and they seem to work great i have also removed the button and just bridged the wires to eliminate if it was a button failure.

  First of all, thank you for sharing your videos as you do. It really helps people like myself learn that much more. Quick question though, and this will really go to show how much I am in the learning phase - what is powering the esp32? Are you able to use the 12VDC that helps the maglock to also power the esp32 via use of a terminal block? Or is that too much current pull from one source and you need to have 2 separate 12VDC sources - one for the esp and one for the maglock? Thanks again and thanks for the helpful videos!

  re: spi vs. sd, SD has a fast built in cpu (80mhz+) managing the flash translation layer (wear leveling) and quite a bit of memory to do it with, which is also used as cache and memory for readahead. the spi flash chips and the sd card use essentially the same command protocol over spi when the sd card is in spi mode the flash chip doesn't have a translation layer, it only needs a state machine to handle stuff while the spi clock is on, that makes them much cheaper but also no read ahead and you have to do wear leveling yourself. there's a constant overhead for switching between pages in the spi flash and it might be most of what you're seeing. the spi flash also can't do anything when the spi clock is not present, so you can't speculatively read the next page to avoid the overhead of switching flash pages like the sd card can. it was a real trip when i found out the commands were the same, considering how closely the sd association guards the specification. it's pretty rare outside of arduino projects and stuff to just use spi mode, it's the root of the reliability problems many people find. the extremely large *managed* flash chips in smartphones and stuff also have spi mode, which makes recovering data from broken phones surprisingly easy (if slow) they're an sd card in a bga package & more pins for the alternate modes

  long replies usually get buried but i have a lot of experience with the original module and a bunch of the clones. #1) you basically can't use the serial at all to track playback status, you have to use the pin or there's a disturbing amount of noise (on the original and every clone i've seen.) #2) the fat file order thing isn't true, had a project that used sets of files, 100, 200, and checked that there were at least one sample at 100 and 200, but the track count was zero (it's one of the serial commands) if i named them 000, 001, 002, the track count would be 3, if named 000, 001, 004, the track count would be 2. if it were indexing by fat table entries it should find 3. what's actually happening in the different boot roms in the original and the clones is that for "number mode", it's actually sequentially looking for numbers (there are multiple, mutually exclusive modes! for example, shuffle will not play 3 tracks either, because of the file counting scheme at boot.) i tried every piece of advice i could find on the internet about this particular noise problem, and the file naming problems and what was being passed around was mostly cargo cult stuff. most of the playback libraries people have written for arduino were likely never tested, they each had a different interpretation for packing the commands and reading the error codes but none of the documentation (and copies of the documentation...) actually explain what's going on. each command string is better thought of a 'verb': the module does that thing, even if you can technically pick out an error number and normalize the commands, everything breaks when the commands are slightly different (like track count!) this was bore out through about 6 completely distinct modules, original and clones

  The drive sort tool is an absolute godsend. The frustration with having to redo the audio file indexes after adding or removing an audio was incredible. I wonder why we are restricted to using the indexes and if there is a library that allows playing files based on file name strings. Anyway, thanks again my good man

  This information was exceptionally useful, thank you for the great work in setting this up. I'm planning a hardware soundboard project, and although I'm well versed at scripting, this will be my first "from-scratch" electronics project, as well as my first foray into Python. The tricky part of this project is that the hardware buttons wont trigger a single sound file, but a random one within a specific directory. So I'm leaning towards the DY-SV5W board in serial mode, with Python code to choose a random index to send to the audio board when a given button is pressed. However, I'm unsure of how to know if the max number of files on the MicroSD card from the arduino to be sure the random index sent is within range of the amount of files in a given directory on the card. For that matter, can i even use directories on the card if the Arduino is just sending a single file index number? Is there a better recommendation for my project idea? Requirements: - i can drag and drop MP3 and WAV files to the MicroSD card like ../dir1/sound1.mp3, ../dir2/sound53.wav - i can press button1 to play ../dir1/[randomfile] or button2 to play ../dir2/[randomfile] With my amateur knowledge, i would expect that the file storage probably needs to be accessible on the board doing the logic, which would be the Arduino in this example, is that accurate? Furthermore, is there an Arduino board that can do all this on it's own without needing a secondary audio board like the ones on your video? I appreciate patience, as this is my first dive into the world of microprocessor boards, aside from casual RPi tinker projects.
