Hi Mark,

 I buy several of these proto boards and keep
 them around for prototyping. Once I get something
 working I set it aside and keep it set up. That way I can
 go back to it later if I need to.

 It is ideal for use with the Hytech data acq.
 opto isolater interface. No soldering required.

 Here is another new trick I learned after 65
 years of fooling around with electronics.
 Unless of course I forgot that I knew it :)
 I know some NASA space shuttle highly qualified
 electronics techs that I don't think know this trick :)

 Use a needle nose plier to strip solid wire insulation
 by crushing the insulation. No axial force required.
 No nicks in the wires. Works with all sizes up
 to 10 gage house wiring. Patent pending but you
 can use it :)

Paul,

Yes, I had noticed your nice method of setting up circuits.  Looks too
easy.
 ;-)  I'll have to stop by Fry's next week and see if they have any of
those
proto boards.  It is usually a hit or miss deal with them.  If I was in
charge I would fire all of the stock clerks, at least the ones in the
electronics section.  Half the time they're out of the item you just drove
50 miles to get.  Very frustrating.

Nice wire stripping trick.

You will get them a lot cheaper at DigiKey and probably
faster :) They don't mind small orders.

Paul,

I ordered a couple of these today.  Makes it a snap to put together a
circuit for testing.
