Why are revlimiters uneven?

PWM is the cheapest way as it needs no other component. Yes, I made a PWM dimmer circuit (for fun) based on circuits I found on the Internet and it works well, and dims to nothingness. (12VDC working a white LED strip.) do it at high enough frequency and there is no visible flicker, and you can feed the LEDS via a small ferrite inductor with a parallel capacitor and reduce HF flicker too. Please tell the car manufacturers how to do this so I don't have to watch flickering tail lights while driving behind someone, or flashing headlights on TV. -- Sent from my iPhone, this spam courtesy of Apple incorporated. |

I was talking about led bulbs that dim without a dimmer that’s on the wall. The dimmer is internal and just has a current regulator instead of a voltage regulator that costs the same. No PWM involved. |

You're getting **** all performance if you've gone over the power curve anyway. It's a primitive technique for an engine under-endowed with torque. When you change up, there is an inevitable drop in power so the idea of revving beyond peak power is to get further up the curve in the next gear. Perhaps there should be more gears then. -- Sent from my iPhone, this spam courtesy of Apple incorporated. |

BG Peeler's slime has been proven to impair the function of a predator fish's gills. In this case, Peeler's mucus would clog the predator's gills, disabling their ability to respire. VBG Poor idiotic gay cyclist! The unidirectional water flow passing Peeler's gills is produced by rolling and unrolling velar folds located inside a chamber developed from the nasohypophyseal tract, and is operated by a complex set of muscles inserting into cartilages of the neurocranium, assisted by peristaltic contractions of the gill pouches and their ducts. As I said: You poor idiotic gay cyclist! BG Peeler does, however, have true myomeres and myosepta like all vertebrates. |

Renal function of Peeler remains poorly described. Hypothetically, he excretes ions in bile salts. Buahahahahahahaaa!!! Poor demented gay cyclist! The complexity of Peeler's brain has been an issue of debate since the late 19th century, with some morphologists suggesting that he does not possess a cerebellum, while others suggest that it is continuous with the midbrain.[ Like I just said: "Buahahahahahahaaa!!! You poor demented gay cyclist!" The mechanics of peeler's craniofacial muscles in feeding have been investigated, revealing advantages and disadvantages of the dental plate. |
