01:25 ptrkOP What is a lot of air pressure? And what is quickly? specs determine valve'
01:25 Jak_o_Shadows ^ yeah, pretty much
01:26 Ademan_ I haven't even begun discovery on this actually... I was more wondering about where to source the parts rather than a particular valve
01:26 rue_house washing mchine valve up to 60psi
01:29 ptrkOP That is also determined by specs
01:29 ptrkOP you can pick one up on ebay
01:29 ptrkOP http://www.ebay.com/itm/3-4-Electric-Solenoid-Valve-24-Volt-AC-Air-Water-B21N-/290579694395
01:32 ptrkOP http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-5-Way-2-Position-Pneumatic-Solenoid-Valve-1-4-DC-24V-/170712655843?_trksid=p3284.m263&_trkparms=algo%3DSIC%26its%3DI%26itu%3DUCI%252BIA%252BUA%252BFICS%252BUFI%26otn%3D21%26pmod%3D321061244522%26ps%3D54
20:04 rue_house washing machine valve handles up to 60psi.
22:43 MrCurious thought exercize here... any lipo powered robot can be equipped with a self destruct via the addition of a DPDT relay? to keep teh tech from falling into others hands
22:45 Jak_o_Shadows Probably could just put some thermite on it as well, on the sensitive bits
22:47 GargantuaSauce the relay would probably fail open long before the battery explodes
22:47 GargantuaSauce unless it's rated for a couple hundred amps
22:47 GargantuaSauce but of course there's only one way to find out for sure
22:47 GargantuaSauce and do post videos when you try it!
22:53 MrCurious heh
22:54 MrCurious wonder if you can compress thermimete into a metal like composition without hosing its properties
