I got an arduino prototyping platform https://www.hyundaiaftermarket.org/f...icroprocessor/ . Last night I turned it into an EMF detector and used it at work to determine the source of interference with some Electrocardiograph (ECG) machines.

^ how close do you have to get to a cell phone before it starts going off?



My grandparents bought me a ShopVac but they also gave me $200 cash and $50 GC to Home Depot



I bought myself a 55" LED LCD on Black Friday

Santa brought me a mason jar of cherries soaking in moonshine

And my wife is ordering me an AEM FMIC and CAI



oh... and I got some camping equipment: Proprane stove, table, LED lantern..

It does not respond to cell phones. It is tuned for 60hz. Up next is a speedometer.
