Apple Airport Time Capsule Overheating Quick Fix - Temporary

Apple Airport Time Capsule Overheating Temporary Quick Fix.
This is a temporary quick fix for the Apple Time Capsule overheating problem. I knew from day on this ran too hot and I needed to put a fan on it but only got around to it years later when it started acting up.
Shockingly poor design by apple especially considering the premium price. Little to no consideration was given to heat dissipation in the design. Electronics in general and especially electrolytic capacitors are susceptible to premature failure due to excessive heat.

We raised the Time Capsule putting four dice at the corners to allow heat dissipation and airflow on the bottom of the unit. We tried two different 12vdc computer fans but both were too loud and pushed more air than needed. One would not run on 5vdc while the other would. We are now driving one of the 12 volt fans at 5 volts with no audible noise and an unbelievable difference in temperature. Before the Time Capsule was hot to the touch, now it never even gets warm.

We may ultimately have to change out the capacitors on the power supply if not change the entire supply due to the heat damage already occurred.

Necessity is the mother of invention (1)

Its hot at Walt Disney World during school break!

Edited by Ryan Gittemeier 2014. Filmed in 2007.





A hand generator wired to a fan mounted to several hats allows for cooling.

Simply turn the hand generator with converts mechanical energy in to electrical energy which travels through the wires then gets converted back into mechanical energy in the motor and turns the fan.



See our video on Mechanical Energy to Electric back to Mechanical for a better description.

How To Build a Retractable Magnetic Plumb Bob

Tie a retractable chalk reel line to a plumb bob. Be sure to get braided line as it wont twist and spin. Glue a magnet to the back for quick easy attachment to ferrous metal objects and also to hold the plumb bob while in storage.

I purchased the Dewalt Compact Chalk Reel and a Johnson Steel Plumb Bob both from Home Depot. The Dewalt has a push quick release that is convenient and its fairly compact which I like.

3 year old solves Rubik's Cube, Emily Gittemeier





3 year old Emily Gittemeier solves the cube for the second time, the first was just minutes prior to this video being shot. She learned by copying her brothers and practicing the steps.

Order of steps in which she learned to solve the Cube:

1) 2 look OLLs, 4 easy ones she knows as "Big Fish", "Little Fish", "Double Fish", and "No Fish". If she got one of the other 3 she didnt know she would just perform the Little Fish algorithm until she got one of the 4 she knew.

2) Yellow Cross on top, perform just one algorithm she knows as the "Line" 1 to 3 times until she got the Cross.

3) White Cross on bottom, beginner method.

4) First Layer insert corners, "slap the white" memory trick.

5) Second Layer, chase the edge, pair up and reinsert, (slap it again).

6) Last Layer - fix the corners, perform one algorithm 1-2 times until corners correct.

7) Last Layer - fix the edges, one algorithm 1-3 times.

This is how she learned to solve the Rubiks Cube. This may seem out of order but we had no intention of teaching her to solve it at that age as we didnt think it was possible. She started by watching her brothers practice 2 look OLLs and copying them. It was after seeing how easily she learned the OLLs and her desire to solve it that we realized she would likely be able to solve it.

Slapping the Cube was a memory trick, no longer needed but helpful at the time.

Algorithms:

Big Fish- R U2i Ri Ui R Ui Ri
Little Fish- R U Ri U R U2 Ri (inverse of BF)
Double Fish- Little Fish twice
No Fish- R U2i R2 Ui R2 Ui R2 U2i R
(She likes the song Down by the Water by PJ Harvey)

Yellow Cross Line- F R U Ri Ui Fi

Last Layer corners- x Ri U Ri D2 R Ui Ri D2 R2 xi

Last Layer edges- R2 U R U Ri Ui Ri Ui Ri U Ri

The kids are going to shoot a solve video "How to solve Rubik's Cube so easy a 3 year old can do it".
