    Question - Vehicle Crash Result (Crumple Zone), Large Car vs Small Car

    Thanks all for the tips. I do like the idea of a demonstration (egg vs anvils) but I think the judge might frown upon a smashed egg on the table in the court room.... I think I will set up something and take a small video and pictures. I am going through the FMVSS (NHTSA) in hopes of finding...

    Question - Vehicle Crash Result (Crumple Zone), Large Car vs Small Car

    Hello All, My mother was rear ended by a larger vehicle. She drove a Toyota Echo (2,000 lbs) and was rear ended by a Dodge Charger (4,000 lbs). She also rear ended an SUV in the accident. The Echo took the brunt of it as you would expect and, as a result, the Charger and the SUV din't show much...

    USB Power from Mobile Phone and Case

    The 3.7V cell will be enough and 500mA should be fine. I understand that I can get 500mA from a laptop or desktop USB but I can't find anything that indicates I can get 500mA from phone. Many people are stating that the phone USB will not provide any power at all. I will check a couple phones...

    USB Power from Mobile Phone and Case

    I bought a battery case last night and hooked it up to the phone. This case doesn't keep the internal battery at 100%. The phone (and battery) operates normally and when the internal battery is low you activate the case to charge the internal battery. In regards to the proposed accessory... I...
