As defined by Arduino to Go, every shade band on the resistor corresponds to a quantity however this could differ relying on the band’s placement. It’s not difficult, however the sheer variety of colours and the way their placement can have an effect on a resistor’s Ohm worth makes making an attempt to memorize every part considerably difficult. In essence (once more, relying on placement):
Brown is one, or a multiplier of 10.
Red is 2, or a multiplier of 100.
Orange is three, or a 1,000 multiplier.
Yellow is 4, or a multiplier of 10,000.
Green is 5, or a multiplier of 100,000.
Blue is six, or a 1,000,000 multiplier.
Purple is seven, however has no multiplier.
Grey is eight, additionally with no multiplier.
White is 9, no multiplier.
Black is a zero, or a multiplier of 1.
Silver and gold are the 2 exceptions to this sample in that they do not signify a quantity or multiplier. Instead, they point out a 10- to 5-percent (respectively) vary in accuracy — that means a gold band resistor may have a 5-percent greater or decrease Ohms worth attributable to attainable variance within the manufacturing course of.
Well, shade us intrigued. The 2024 Tokyo Auto Salon opens later this week, and it will be the venue the place Nissan debuts a brand new Nismo mannequin. The mannequin continues to be unknown, however we do know it is a road-going car with an “electrified” powertrain.
Some automakers use that phrase to indicate pure EVs whereas others confer with plug-in hybrids. Judging by the shadowy teaser, although, we’re tempted to imagine this new Nismo will likely be absolutely electrical. The silhouette hints at a efficiency mannequin primarily based on the Ariya. It would not be the primary Nismo-branded SUV, although – the Patrol Nismo has been on sale within the Middle East since 2015 and the Juke Nismo predates that by just a few years.
Nintendo sold 118.69 million examples of the Game Boy and Game Boy Color and 81.51 million items of the Game Boy Advance, making them a few of the hottest items of gaming {hardware} on the planet. Today, I realized one thing about these handhelds that I by no means knew. In the 2000s, a particular cart allowed these methods to perform as diagnostic instruments for sure Aprilia, Peugeot, and Suzuki scooters.
The gear included a Game Boy Color or Game Boy Advance (relying on the 12 months) with a cartridge with a wire popping out of it and a pair of cables. One of them connected to the engine management unit, and the opposite routed to the brake system.
With all the things connected, the hand-held gaming system grew to become a totally purposeful diagnostic instrument. The video above reveals the engine pace, throttle place, and temperature capabilities. The system might additionally learn and clear fault codes. Technicians might activate actuators to be sure that issues just like the ignition, injectors, and pumps have been working electronically and mechanically.
Beyond diagnosing issues, the instrument additionally might replace the scooters’ ECU. For instance, the shop manual for this cart reveals switching between Standard and Racing tunes for a 50cc engine.
Orbital developed these carts and provided a web-based replace instrument for enhancing them. Thus, it was potential to obtain new variations and cargo them from a cable connecting the Game Boy and a PC.
Though it would sound unusual, utilizing a Game Boy Color or Advance as a platform for a diagnostic instrument looks like a incredible concept. The solely factor distinctive about this setup was the cart. So, a technician might use any handheld out there. They have been cheap and available, so discovering one was straightforward.
These days, fans are prepared to pay a premium for Oribital’s scooter diagnostic carts. Game Boy followers need them to finish collections, whereas Aprilia, Peugeot, and Suzuki scooter homeowners hunt for them to work on their bikes. They aren’t interchangeable between fashions, that means these homeowners have to search out the suitable one for his or her mannequin, driving costs up.
Someone on a Game Boy forum requested $3,000 for an entire in-case Peugeot model. A 2007 publish on an Aprilia discussion board confirmed someone paying 400 euros for one. Some of us even made their very own cables for the system. The video under reveals off the Aprilia and Suzuki variations of the cart.
So along with taking part in your favourite Pokémon video games, simply know Game Boys have additionally been used to maintain scooters on the highway. Fascinating.
KTM has announced that the 2024 model of its 390 Adventure will be available with two new color options. Unlike the 2023 update, which added suspension adjustability among other rider-focused features, the 2024 version will focus solely on new paint and graphics.
The Engine
The 2024 KTM 390 Adventure is equipped with a four-stroke, 373.2cc single-cylinder engine that delivers a claimed 32 kilowatts (about 42.9 horsepower) and 37 newton-meters (about 27.2 pound-feet) of torque. The engine has a bore and stroke of 89mm by 60mm and is paired with a six-speed gearbox featuring a PASC antihopping clutch. While an up-and-down quickshifter is not included as standard, it is available as an accessory. The current engine is compliant with Euro Five regulations.
Chassis
The 2024 KTM 390 Adventure features a steel trellis frame and a removable subframe with just four screws. It is equipped with WP Apex suspension on both ends, consisting of a 43mm front fork and a WP Apex monoshock at the rear. The suspension offers standard rebound and compression adjustability.
For braking, the 2024 390 Adventure comes with a 320mm single disc setup in the front and a 230mm single disc setup in the rear. It also features two-channel, lean-angle-sensitive ABS and traction control as standard.
Depending on the version of the 390 Adventure, you can choose between 19-inch and 17-inch cast wheels. Heavy-duty spoked wheels are also available for those seeking a more adventurous riding experience. If you don’t see your preferred wheel type at your local KTM dealership, be sure to ask.
Additional Features
The 2024 KTM 390 Adventure boasts a 3.8-gallon fuel tank, providing an estimated range of 248 miles on a single fill-up. However, actual range may vary depending on riding style. The adjustable rally-style windscreen offers a slim profile and can be positioned to the rider’s preference.

In addition to the price drop and qualifying for a tax credit, the Tesla Model X now offers all five color options without any additional fees. Furthermore, Tesla has reduced the cost of its FSD Beta, a Level 2 advanced driver-assistance system. Previously priced at $15,000, the FSD capability is now available for $12,000, reflecting a 20% reduction. The purchase of FSD after buying a Tesla does not impact the car’s eligibility for the tax credit. For now, the monthly subscription price will remain the same at $99 or $199, depending on the level of autopilot functionality. Tesla vehicles equipped with Enhanced Autopilot can perform tasks such as automatic lane changing, merging on and off highways, parking (parallel and perpendicular), and being summoned by a smartphone in a parking lot. FSD also includes the ability for a Tesla to autonomously stop at red lights. However, some Tesla customers have expressed dissatisfaction with the autonomous driving features.
Overall, these price reductions allow customers to purchase a new Model X at a lower cost compared to before and choose from various color options without extra charges. Tesla has also made its other models more affordable, including the Model S, which now has a price tag of $74,990, a $3,500 reduction from its previous price. As a result, the larger-battery trims of both the Model X and Model S are now cheaper than the smaller-battery options prior to the price drop. Although the pricier Plaid models have also been discounted, they still remain too expensive to qualify for a full EV tax credit.
The automaker introduces La Rose Noire, a stunning roadster featuring a deep red paint color named True Love. It took an incredible 150 layers to achieve the perfect shade. Inside, the vehicle boasts 1,603 hand-inlaid wood pieces, adding a touch of elegance. However, the true masterpiece of La Rose Noire is the Audemars Piguet Royal Oak watch, which alone costs around $200,000.
Rolls-Royce
Equipped with 22-inch wheels painted in a color named Mystery, La Rose Noire flaunts the iconic rear-hinged doors commonly found in Rolls-Royce models. The exact price of the Droptail remains undisclosed. However, considering the limited production of only four units and the inclusion of a $200,000 watch, affordability is not a trait associated with this vehicle. It seems that only those with royal associations may have the chance to own one. To put it in perspective, the previous car in the Coachbuild series, the Boat Tail, had an estimated cost of $25 million.
Rolls-Royce
Despite its exorbitant price, the Droptail represents Rolls-Royce’s display of self-control by producing an ultra-exclusive car. It goes beyond being a luxury vehicle and enters the realm of extraordinary.
