Will it work on QPC? :D :D :D

Sorry, I'm a bit silly today. Puppy got me up at 2AM. Not slept since. He has, on the other hand!

Cheers,
Norm.

Would this project also work with Hermes instead of the IPC 8049 ?

I do not yet have a product but trying to gauge interest and some idea of quantity. My goal would be to recreate the original including the packaging and the dot matrix font instructions. Although I may concede to not printing it on an actual dot matrix printer. The hardware equivalent of a tribute band :D

Hi,

I did a PCB schematic in KiCad, for a Capslock LED, mainly for my own joy and entertainment.... I do not get out much. I have not done the PCB layout yet.

But I would suport any project.

I'm sure Son of CAPSLED could be prettied up some - the first project QView did was in the original hacker hobbyist (Heathkit!) style. Some wire, an LED, a transistor and a drill bit. We were frequently complimented on the drill bit, which I claim as my idea having been frustrated in the past by kits which requied a tool you may not have to hand and delayed the gratification. We didn't incluse a soldering iron because well, they weren't viable in a £5 offering...

But maybe SuperCAPSLED could be a parallel project - these days of multicolour LEDs and all....

I'd like blue or white LEDs to go with my custom QLs 8-)
