users of the volt battery meter can update now. i have done some updates to
it which fix some problems to the older version

list of anime i have seen so far -->

welcome to the world of electronics. chances are you know about a few components however complex they might be. Resistors are the most common and possibly the cheapest components on the planet (a few cents for a resistor). most resistors are too small to write the value on so they use a (sometimes confusing) colour code to represent numbers
if you want an easier way to decode those resistors, I have a program that can help,
in the program you can:
select colours from a dropdown list and it instantly tells you the value of the colour
it will calculate the tolerance of the resistor (minimum and maximum values)
it will also convert resistor values into a 4 or 5 band resistor colour code (depending on mode).

battery meter (9x,NT,ME,2k,XP win classic or small title bars)
updated 20/5/09. this will work on XP but with minor window size issues.
and will function on vista
there is a version for XP default however it just has the window size changed a bit, i shall work on a universal version which adjusts to the bottom of the level bar depending on the title bar size
read the text file that appears after installing for information on the fixes

updated 5/6/09 (05 june 2009) uses the F7 key to eject the
CD tray (with checkbox to disable the ejector if a program uses F7 for another
function)
