In any case, I&amp;rsquo;ve now retrofitted my TPH125 with a USB port - not long after I got it. As part of a repair to the speedometer cable and the replacement of a few control switches on the handlebars, the entire fairing had to come off anyway. So why not kill two - no, three - birds with one stone and install that long-awaited outlet while I was at it?&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Upgrading the UV Exposure Unit</title><link>https://blog.privacynerd.de/en/posts/2026/04/exposure-unit-upgrade/</link><pubDate>Fri, 10 Apr 2026 18:09:20 +0200</pubDate><guid>https://blog.privacynerd.de/en/posts/2026/04/exposure-unit-upgrade/</guid><description>&lt;h2 id="introduction"&gt;Introduction&lt;/h2&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;After a long period of using the &lt;a href="https://blog.privacynerd.de/en/posts/2025/04/diy-uv-pcb-exposure-unit/"&gt;unit&lt;/a&gt; with exposure times exceeding 40 minutes in PCB manufacturing, it was finally time for the previously announced upgrade. The goal was to double the number of LEDs from 48 to 96. This is intended to achieve more uniform coverage of the exposure area, as well as, of course, shorter exposure times.&lt;/p&gt;
 &lt;h2 id="problems"&gt;1. PCB Problems&lt;/h2&gt;
 &lt;p&gt;The increased number of LEDs also increases the power requirement. And that posed a problem - the first control board was only rated for 1A at 12V. So a new one is needed - the exposure unit exposes its own new controller board.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>Bottle Dryer?!</title><link>https://blog.privacynerd.de/en/posts/2025/12/bottle-dryer/</link><pubDate>Thu, 25 Dec 2025 12:00:00 +0100</pubDate><guid>https://blog.privacynerd.de/en/posts/2025/12/bottle-dryer/</guid><description>&lt;h2 id="introduction"&gt;The Idea&lt;/h2&gt;
