Question by penelopesouth: I’m an electronics technician looking for a different career.?
I’ve got 10 years experience, but I’m sick of electronics. Anybody have an idea of a different field I could go into with my experience? This may sound like a strange question, but I just need a different direction. I can’t go back to school right now. I just need a change.
I’ve got interests in all sorts of areas. I can pretty much fix anything. What I am mainly looking for is maybe someone who left the electronics industry and was able to assimilate into another industry easily. I am just looking for an example. Thanks.
Best answer:
Answer by Nadine You can fix something else, like radars. Or…here’s something…I saw a story online about out-of-work auto workers learning to be nurses (also technical in a way, but definitely a different direction).
I know someone else who’s in the same boat, and wants to go into fixing computer networks, but he needs maybe 6 more classes. He says he can’t go back to school either, but it seems to me he’s been saying that longer than it would have taken him to get that piece of paper.

www.amtelectronics.com *I think I talk about “…no battery..” in the video This is NOT the case. The WH-1 can indeed be powered by a battery. Just remove the two screws at the rear back plate and insert the battery. My apologies, Sergey! 10 reasons why I love this wah… 1. It’s small 2. It sounds great 3. It doesn’t mess with Germanium fuzzes or anything else down the signal path 4. It’s called ‘Japanese Girl’ 5. It has 3 selectable band frequencies 6. It has no volume knob so I’m not worried about unity 7. It is 9-12V DC powered – *or 9V battery! 8. It’s easy to use 9. It will fit snuggly on my pedal board 10. It’s built like a weapon and will be very hard to break No, I’m afraid I do not know where you can purchase one. You will have to consult the website. I know there’s one dealer in Japan, but that’s all I know. Sorry! Video Rating: 4 / 5
Question by : What kind of computer electronics career makes 125/h?
A few months ago I decided to go to an automotive school for a year and my electronics instructor was telling us about computer electronics jobs and he said some school that are recommended by microsoft, after 2 years you can start off making $ 125.00 an hour.
What exactly do you go for to make that kind of money?
It kinda made me feel like I made a bad choice because an Auto tech. won’t make anywhere near that. I’m still not even sure about my career choice, after-all, and my tuition isn’t cheap -.-
I know it’s a for profit school but the instructors aren’t any part of it, also, he was telling us about careers that aren’t even related to the school I’m attending.
Best answer:
Answer by Redjr01 Stick with what you like. It sounds like your teacher is badly misinformed. There was once a time where you could make 125/hr in technology if you had leading edge skills. You don’t get those skills by going to a school for two years. A lot of those career type schools like to hype because they are for profit schools and the more hype they generate the more students enroll.
Anyway, with outsourcing and H1B visas, technology fields are globally competitive. Microsoft picks from the cream of the crop including those engineering students from Ivy league schools. So, Microsoft is a business and they are not going to pay a student from a two year school 125/hr when they can get seasoned professionals for a lot less. Increased competition for these jobs have knocked down salaries and that’s a fact. So, if you like working with cars and electronics, stick with it. Listen to your teacher and you will be chasing dreams that may never occur.
This is one instance where I would have to see it to believe it. Ask this teacher if he knows anyone that graduated from a two year school making 125/hr with Microsoft and ask if you can meet with this person to discuss how this person accomplished this in such a tight market.

Switchgear Life Extension, Electrical Safety, and Standards Take Center Stage at PEARL’s Electrical Safety, Reliability and Sustainability Conference & Exhibition
In addition to a presentation on switchgear life extension, IEEE Senior Member Nigel McQuin will discuss his contributions to the Ohio State University design team that created the Buckeye Bullet, the world’s fastest electric vehicle and current holder of the U.S. electric car speed record at 314.958 mph.
Aurora, CO (PRWEB) February 14, 2012
Industrial sustainability and cost savings through proper reconditioning of industrial electric equipment such as switchgear and circuit breakers will be the main topics at the 15th annual Electrical Safety, Reliability and Sustainability Conference & Exhibition, sponsored by PEARL, May 5-7, 2012, at the Sheraton Station Square Hotel in Pittsburgh.
In addition to two days of technical presentations related to electrical maintenance, reconditioning, and life extension, the event also includes a two-day, two-track electrical training program for electrical technicians looking to improve their skills.
Presentations start on Sunday with opening remarks from Pittsburgh Mayor Luke Ravenstahl*, followed by insight on building a remanufactured product industry from William Gager, founder of the Automotive Parts Remanufacturers Association (APRA). The day also features hot topics and business practices in cold economies; roundtable discussion groups; and a look at the Buckeye Bullet II, the world’s fastest battery-powered car.
On Monday, electrical shock and arc flash protection pioneer H. Landis “Lanny” Floyd, II of DuPont will deliver the keynote address, which looks at the state of electrical safety in the U.S. and the hidden costs of electrical reliability in dollars, employee injuries, and related costs. He will also review the evolution of standards, codes, and regulations as they relate to personnel protection – both at the customer site as well as in the PEARL member electrical reconditioning shops. Additional presentations include Nigel McQuin, Senior Member of IEEE, and Europe’s CIGRE and IET organizations, and his perspective on circuit breaker conversions and switchgear life extensions, as well as other presentations on equipment safety operations, and coaching and leadership. Finally, PEARL member volunteers will give updates on the latest PEARL standards, ANSI efforts, and a proposal for a new PEARL Technician Certification electrical training program.
The conference also offers a two-day, dual-track electrical training course that focuses on low-voltage circuit breakers and medium-voltage contactors, running concurrently with the technical program. Day one involves classroom work presented by Shermco Industries at the Sheraton Station Square Hotel, while day two offers hands-on electrical training presented by Voyten Electric & Electronics, Inc. at The Motor Control Center. During the training, veteran electrical technicians will share equipment-specific defects and trouble areas commonly found in service-aged equipment.
Interested attendees and exhibitors should contact the PEARL office at (877) 287-3275, send an email to pearl(at)pearl1(dot)org, or visit http://www.Pearl1.org. Corporations that join PEARL within 30 days of the end of the conference will have up to 100% of their conference registration fee applied towards their first year’s PEARL membership.
*Mayor Luke Ravenstahl’s opening remarks are subject to change without notice based on his honor’s schedule.

The second component is the “Bot” or battery. When the “Smoke” and “Bot” are attached to one another, they are combined to create your very own “Smokebot Ann Arbor electronic cigarettes“.
]]>
Each new “Smoke” (Advanced Cartridge) comes with a built-in atomizer. The atomizer is a device that vaporizes the nicotine into a water vapor. One of the many things that makes Smokebot Ann Arbor electronic cigarettes unique and are of high quality is that its atomizer is attached to its cartridge. It is called cartomizer, cartridge and atomizer in one. The advantage of this is that when you’re done with one cartridge and replaces it with a new one, you are also replacing a new atomizer attached to it. In this manner, bacteria that grow on atomizers will not be left on your electronic cigarette. You no longer have the problem of sanitizing your atomizer which causes you a lot of effort and time doing this everytime you are changing your cartridge. Other electronic cigarettehas three parts: the battery, cartridge and atomizer. This means that their atomizers are not disposable. Since they are not disposable and cannot be replaced everytime you are changing your cartridges, after two weeks of using, you will notice the less smoke it produced after each puff because residues clogs inside the atomizer.

Not to mention there is no second hand smoke or pungent odors which makes Smokebot possible to smoke wherever most smoking bans are present. Some of these places include bars, restaurants, hospitals, airports, etc. But that is not the only things Smokebot offers. Smokebot can cost up to 50% less than a pack of cigarettes.

All manner of monitoring & diagnostic equipment is maintained & serviced by “in house ‘ engineers.
Biotech depts now include IT technology which has become increasingly important in data /image storage distribution, record keeping & information security as well as communications.
Could be a good opportunity.
If I had the skills , think I would look for a job at a big university hospital.

It is consalation that wholesale electronics supplier are aiming at small businesses as well as VIP retailers. Choosing the proper items is genuinely the key to the success of your business and the product selection can make your online business a success or a failure.
]]>
Directory websites often give a list of the wholesale electronic providers and makers who also drop ship. The details could play a inportant role in evaluating the benefits that you could make from your online business. Drop shipping makes the product delivery hassle-free via the wholesale electronics providers themselves. So you don’t have to have a warehouse and storage expenses. Zero inventory is made accomplishable with drop shipping.
What’s more, directory sites usually have a system of rating the wholesale electronics providers listed on them. Previous purchasers of the wholesale electronics providers would have given advices on their products. A negative feedback suggests a terrible wholesale electronics supplier, and it’s better to keep away from such suppliers. Getting cheated by wholesale electronics suppliers of no moral sense is much easier than making a penny sale online.
Seek the best-selling electronics items. You mayattain a long list of items you can sell easily. But, actually is what the best seller online are! Prepare a list of wholesale electronics provider who could offer the goods at the best prices, cheapest shipping charges, best after-sale service and warrantees, refund guarantees and so on. Usually, one wholesale electronics provider alone isn’t able to supply all the products you desire to sell. Searching more number of wholesale electronics suppliers helps in terms of a good stock. .
