how are we going to put the robot together like when you said in the first tutorial
-
2009?!!! And you're still making tutorials in 2012!!! Hmmm... Wow

He looks a bit like Shia LaBeouf out of Transformers
-
you are awesome. ... thanks man!

@thenerfwarriors1 he has to his desktop is dual screened and the other one is a laptop
-
why do you have 3 computers?
-
@Madcow800, Why on earth did u increase the voltage? That will increase the power and fry the circuit.
-
great job
-
before i started watching your video i tried to make a resistor slow down the speed of a motor i had well the motor wouldnt work at all so i kept adding more voltage thinking that the resistor was too strong and my resistor caught fire and the motor still didnt work!

What are some times that you would use a resistor for? Is it like when you have a battery that gives 9V but the component only need 6V to function? Is that when you would use a resistor?
Good video. You might want to go over the color bands and how they can be used to identify overall resistance and tolerance - or at least mention it. As far as tolerance bands, you want to look for a gold band (which indicates 5% tolerance). Silver is 10% and no band is 20%.
btw - the tolerance is total tolerance, not +/-. So a 5% tolerance on a 100 ohm resistor is actually 97.5 to 102.5 ohms.
Cheers. Keep em coming.

thanks man im uploading 2 more videos on resistors now, one on how to test using a multimeter and one on how to use the color bands
