Ddos attack have evolved, I've seen in the news that a bad guy used a looooooooot of computers hacked around the world to generate traffic... But no too much. He have so many slave computers that each one can send a unique traffic, pause for minutes, and goes back. This way it ever been under the radar of the protection program, but real humans did see a pattern and been able to take down the attack. .... Why bad guys are so clever... Why is it easier to break something than to make it work... Who give money to put down some web sites ?..

Hi ! I had the two last pages to read and a question: in the end, won't you make a project to mimic interface-B but via WiFi or Bluetooth? Chance on me : I'm really really bad at coding, if i wasn't it will already be on my to-do list. (There is so many damaged 9v cables on the wild where you can take the connectos, such a project look realistic)

It cannot be otherwise with an fdm printer. And it is also a very hard print for a resin printer because of the hollow body... It's even harder to clean it after the print ! You could maybe make it in two parts, then glue them together with a thin joint of resin. And for fdm... If the hose doesn't break, you can make the thing waterproof after the print. How: it depend of the material.

It really looks great I hope to see the final result so please keep updating this topic (even if it is once every two years )

USB-C power supply for 9V system
Wapata replied to Wapata's topic in LEGO Technic, Mindstorms, Model Team and Scale Modeling
I have both My big 8480 and 8868 have the Lego connector not attached, and it's not great. Plus you can't plug an external power supply AND let the connector on the battery older empty, because when no button is pressed, there is a short (to brake the motors). In the end, think about Control Center 1, Tower with 9v batteries that won't work with 8.9 volts and finally, think about the "oh snap, where is my Lego power supply again ?" situation. I have also made adapters for other Lego power blocks that I need to update like that. -
Hello ! I have found a USB-C board that can supply 9V voltage https://fr.aliexpress.com/item/1005009793718316.html and then said to my self "wait, what ? I can put a USB C port on my Lego remote, Lego CyberMaster, Lego Interface-B, Lego Control Center ... and all ! So let's fire up the solder iron ! At first I was thinking that i could make a 3D printed case, Lego shaped, then procrastination knock on my head and said that "meh, what about a wire instead ? " and voila ! I can now use any GOOD FULL USB-C power supply, the cable negotiate 9V and that all. If you don't have a good full power supply, you will have 5V... take one of your Nintendo Switch But i've made a gig : And i have my first new old 9v on USB And it work !
