Finally following up on my previous post about the coolmoon controller mod, this post shows how to connect it with a mainboard header and do cool (pun intended) animations with OpenRGB.| Jake’s Blog
This is a detailed description of the major 2.0.0 release of BLE Serial. It is a tool to connect Bluetooth low energy 4. and 5.x (BLE) UART modules to virtual serial ports on Linux and now also COM ports on Windows. Backend Change In the first BLE Serial versions (1.0 up to 1.3) it used bluepy as bluetooth backend library. Problem with it was an open issue that required the manual installation of a fork, like described in the previous post about it. Now over the course of 2020 some PRs got me...| Jake’s Blog
In this post I investigate how a typical Oneplus smartphone battery communicates the current voltage, state of charge etc. to the main device. This can be also useful for repurposing these batteries on a Raspberry or Orange Pi, to power portable projects.| Jake’s Blog
This is another app release that adds new data conversion features. This time: temperature measurement!| Jake’s Blog
After almost 2 years I began working on my app for the UT61E (and others from the UT61 series) again. This release includes only small visible changes, a lot of work went into updating the Android API, especially the new security features required changes.| Jake’s Blog
This is the next part in my telescope series, look at the other posts for more details. In this post I describe how I set up a basic controller to test the mechanical setup.| Jake’s Blog
This post shows the build of the azimuth (horizontal) axis for my GOTO telescope mount.| Jake’s Blog
This post is the first real part of my self made GoTo mount series.| Jake’s Blog
This is the introduction to a multi part series about building a GoTo system for a Dobson style telescope mount. It should be computer controlled and be able to move to a selected target and also automatically track it. I want to use popular and inexpensive parts known from 3D printing for the mechanical setup, mostly leftovers from upgrade of my Prusa i3 printer.| Jake’s Blog
This post describes the setup of some convenient features that I deployed for the NAS, to automatically save power, make it wake up and mount it on the client only when needed.| Jake’s Blog

This is a performance comparison of the the three most useful protocols for networks file shares on Linux with the latest software. I have run sequential and random benchmarks and tests with rsync. The main reason for this post is that i could not find a proper test that includes SSHFS.| Jake’s Blog
