After 10-20 years away from "proper hardware" stuff (I used to design and build circuits in my teens in the 1980s) I want to get back into this.
Other than ebikes my ultimate interests are in renewable/resilient power supplies (a solar/wind powered UPS), radio communications and home automation using PC's...
I know stuff like PCB design is way easier and also circuit design now there is loads of powerful computer software. I have the space and cash for a reasonable workshop.
what sort of stuff should I be purchasing to equip it?
