    Fun times!

    I'm sitting in Australia on a month vacation and I dragged along 2 controllers and my laptop to fill any "down" time I have. Not really working but writing and testing some code for future deployment. Things I don't have time for when I'm working.

    Never had a problem with controllers and/or power supplies. Lighters is another story. One airport directs you to pack them, others want you to carry them and when you are making international transfers and you can't pack them back into your checked luggage you end up sending three high dollar lighters back to yourself wondering if you will ever see them again.
    Was worried that they would consider the controllers commercial samples but never been asked about them.

    My buddy in New Orleans on our trip to get Tridium certified keeps spare controller terminal blocks in in his backpack. He forgot about having them, you want to talk about having a fit, security shook him down for 30 minutes before letting him through.

    That looks very familiar, I'm working on getting more organized since the kids keep getting into the gear. I have mounted a 36 x 24 panel with perforated back plate in my basement for testing.
