[Robotgroup] Upcoming dorkbot announcement

[Def Egge]

Earlier bounced message from Nick looked something like this:


Hello Dorkbot Austin! We are once again doing 
strange things with electricity!

Our next dorkbot is scheduled for June 19th, 2008 
at Café Mundi @ 7pm

Currently we have 4 presentations, but we need 1 
or 2 more to fill the boot. If you have a new 
project you are working on, we would love to see 
it and give you the chance to be the center of 
attention while you explain how it works. We 
should have a projector for you to use so you can 
show any video or powerpoint presentations that 
would go along with your project. If you would 
like to be a presenter please respond to this 
email and/or please give Chase or Luke a call >>


Chase Hammock 850-368-4757 or

Luke Iseman at: 512-466-4055.


If you need help setting up or unloading/loading 
your stuff please speak up and we will be glad to 
help you get it done.

The presentations we have listed so far are:

Luke Iseman’s DIY Bike Alarm Project How To End 
Bike Theft: The Honeybike Project – protect your 
bike or other vehicle with a high voltage alarm 
system that can’t be beat! I imagine this 
presentation will be shocking :)

DIY Modular Battery Backup system (Uniterruptible 
Power Supply) for powering computer systems or 
other electronics or electrical equipment that 
needs to have a reliable battery backup in the 
event of a grid power failure

fuse on my variac, so that's kinda cool." more
