Hello!
You may have seen the new tutorial section, and it looks like we already have a bunch of new tutorials. What we need is more tutorials, so I have created a list of tutorials below for anyone to take on. Just respond to this post with the tutorial you would like to create and get started. If you have any suggestions for other tutorials I can add them to the list as well. Upon completing the tutorial, you will be rewarded with the ez-credit value listed with each tutorial!
Some of these tutorials will be very simple, but keep in mind, it will be helpful for lots of new users.
EDIT: When you are done making the tutorials please make a post on this thread letting me know you are done. That way it will be a bit easier on me to keep things organized. Thanks!

@Jeremie.
Thanks for the info, I appreciate it. I was aware about what inrush is (I've helped answer members questions about it in the past, explaining what it means), and that it would be a much higher figure than "running". I was hoping for a possible inrush figure with no load as I know people have asked about it before and thought it might be helpful.
Anyway, thanks again.
Sorry @Steve G, instantaneous "in rush" is very hard to capture as it happens so fast. I might be able to capture it with my oscilloscope but I'd have to sit down and figure out a way to do it.
Okay thanks Jeremie.
@James
Do you have a email address at EZ Robot. I need to contact you.
@James I'll check it out ".......[/i] error. confused btw inform me if you need any other work done like this
@James I am also doing "Arrrays (Explanation, functions) - $15" ......................will update you soon on this.
I'll take "Chinese pop culture" for 10 points...
I noticed the other day that my TIP based transistor switching circuit tutorial isn't marked as a tutorial. Perhaps that could be added to the list for a nice easy bit of store credit, everything is in the topic you just need to make it step by step. Feel free to use my images or make your own.
I wish I had the time and desire to do it myself but at the moment that's just not going to happen.
@Rich.
I'll do that for you. I don't want any store credit for it though, as the content is already there. It's just a case of reformatting it in to steps like you say, and it won't take me long. I'll do it over the weekend when I finish my Amp/volts one.
