Opportunities for premium pricing, safer and lower cost products: case studies, technologies, players and forecasts
Printed electronics for healthcare and beauty encompasses stretchable, flexible, conformal and sometimes biodegradable electronics and electrics. It is very thin and lightweight, even in hybrid constructions that, for now, incorporate conventional integrated circuits (IC), light emitting diodes (LED) and other chips in a partly printed device in order to perform functions not yet possible with entirely printed surfaces. Saving up to 40% of cost, space and weight and making new things possible are typical achievements. This is the only up to date, comprehensive report on this rapidly emerging technology and covers; electronic medical implants, patches, disposables, and drug and cosmetic dispensing: stretchable, flexible, wide area, low cost, disposable electronics. It looks at how technologies such as NFC are impacting healthcare provision.
New Enabling Technology - but what are the real opportunities vs hype?
Printed and potentially printed thin film electronics provides many benefits in healthcare and beauty including low cost in many cases, even to the point of disposability, and greatly enhanced functionality in other cases. Frequently, it makes new things possible. It does this in two ways. It is the basis of totally new components relying on new physical principles, examples including metamaterials and memristors. Secondly it makes possible the creation of new devices such as self-powered implants that never need a battery to be replaced. Battery replacement by surgical procedure causes up to 3% of fatalities.
All this addresses the modern needs of healthcare in the private house and on-the-go and more effective, affordable healthcare and beauty products that are easier to use, unobtrusive, greener, automatic and safer. The greying of the population and lack of staff and facilities for conventional healthcare are addressed.

Best Buy sucks- how to save on electronics
by Best_Info_EVERI hate Best Buy. They are inherently more expensive than a lot of other retailers. They have terrible return policies, had the poorest rating for customer service last year, and the management consists of a bunch of douchebags. If you have ever visited the site bhphotovideo(.)com, then you realize how overpriced retail stores are for electronics. The great thing, is that stores like HHGregg will haggle price with you because they get commission on sales, just like a car dealership. Do your research on the web, get the price and information printed out and walk in there. They will try to say something like, "Well a lot of those interent companies are fly-by-night and aren't reliable or even exist

PCB guitar electronics....
by aintdisclosinI have a 70's Les Paul Custom copy. It's actually a pretty decent one from what I read on the interwebs. Anyway, I bought some upgraded pickups, and opened the control cavity for the first time to find the pots mounted on a fucking printed circuit board, like Gibson is doing now. Ok, fine. So I desolder the old PUPS and solder up the new ones. And the shit don't work. A little research found me that those PCB's have really fragile traces on them and they seem to hold up to the initial solder-on at the factory but the heat of a desolder and resolder just kills them. The pots were probably fine, and I could have completely freed them from the board and used them in a 'normal' configuration, but I wanted a new switch anyway so I got a complete wiring kit on Ebay for $16, and did the deed...
