+# Info on various hardware components
+
+I bought various components from AliExpress, and sometimes they lack info. I've added info about them here:
+
+## USB-C decoy breakouts: [5V 9V 12V 15V 20V adjustable 3A PD/QC multi-protocol decoy fast charging boost module TYPE-C USB interface](https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006064674815.html)
+
+Specification:
+* Supports multiple fast charging protocols
+* Maximum support 3A
+* TYPE-C port power supply
+* Support multiple fast charging protocols: PD3.0/2.0, QC3.0/2.0, FCP, AFC
+* PD/QC multi-protocol decoy 5V, 9V, 12V, 15V, 20V voltage adjustable
+
+The manufacturer has said that this is the truth table:
+
+| 1 | 2 | 3 | Voltage |

+# Notes on my TimSav
+
+A few years ago I made a TimSav foam cutter CNC. These are my notes on it, because I keep forgetting things.
+
+* It runs [FluidNC](https://github.com/bdring/FluidNC).
+* `M3 S200` enables the spindle at 20%, `M3 S0`/`S0` disables it, `M5` halts it.
+
+To generate the Gcode, I use a program called [LaserWeb](https://laserweb.yurl.ch/). I have a few notes on it:
+
+* After you load an SVG, you need to click the leftmost button below the SVG, with the three cubes. This will select all the paths to generate movements for.
+* You need to click "Create single" to create a path to mill.
+* I use "Laser Cut" as the tool.
+
+I created a small script, `cnc_unwanted_moves`, to remove unwanted tool off/on at each corner. I won't share it here, as it's too specific to my configuration, and probably useless to anyone else.
