Next #livestream I'm going to let you decide if the Smart Hub in it's current state is HUB-TASTIC or HUB-TRASH, plus I have #ESP32S31 news! #maker #projects #electronics #microcontrollers youtube.com/live/THYIYku...

UM LIVESTREAM: 2026.20 - HUB-TASTIC or HUB-TRASH? + ESP32-S31!

It's been a fun few days - I got confirmation I have #ESP32S31 sample SoCs on the way, so I thought I better finish this off. The SoC is massive compared to the S3, and is full of lots of little goodies... so much so, that I had to add a 3rd 3V3 LDO! #maker #projects #kicad

Yes, this is running on my Smart USB 6 Port Hub and yes, this all works, and yes, this all runs without the web interface being open.... but if it's open, it's realtime updates! #maker #projects

Hey folks! Next #LiveStream I'm just going to be HUB-ING around... I hope you can join the fun! youtube.com/live/S8hXnf5... #maker #usbsmarthub #project

Super busy day in @kicad_pcb today - Here's the updated design for my ESP32-S3 Smart USB 2.0 6 Port Hub I was assembling on my stream last week. Now includes powering monitoring per port via 2x INA3221 ICs and a temp/humidity sensor. #maker #pcbdesign

I'm getting closer to being able to show what I've been working on for the longest time... but I'm not quite there yet, so instead, I thought I'd throw up a teaser image "with product branding removed" - because I'm an ass ;) #maker #electronics #projects

This is the week! This #livestream I am going to assemble the first USB 7 Port "Smart" HUB - and see if it even works... My money is on NO - You? I hope to see you all in the chat... youtube.com/live/dH51BfO... #maker #projects #electronics #pcb #assembly

It's a been a super long time, but I've finally run out of Ignion Antennas, so I've had to evolve #TinyPICO into something new... something Series[D] Here's the final TinyPICO[D] Prototype - It's the same TinyPICO that started this journey off, but all grown up! #ESP32

Calibrating a magnetometer for a 9-axis fusion compass solution, for a DIY omni-directional vehicle controller board, is never a fun thing to do - but making a real-time web tool to help users do it has been a "not fun", interesting challenge ;) #maker #robotics #projects

Wow, JLCPCB are now selling framed and frameless manual stencil printers. They offer them below the stencil area on the ordering page. Cool move JLC!

I was gonna wait until all of the Season 5 Eps were out (it's being released in 2 chunks) before watching #StrangerThings S5, but SCREW THAT! Let the part 1 binge begin!

Next #livestream, I'm working on a custom tester PCB for an "under NDA" project, but the work on the board is ok to do live ... so I will be! Hope to catch some of you in the chat! #kicad #pcbdesign #testjig youtube.com/live/Cq5xxA5...
