Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Hi,
    Need some help for an assignment:

    I have 2 diagrams of circuits that both light an LED for a period of time, based on the values of the resistor and capacitor. One has a 555 timer, the other doesn't.

    Which circuit is better, and why?

    Thanks!
