An unofficial, AI-generated knowledge base distilling 719 episodes of The Amp Hour into cited, browsable electronics articles.

Why it surfaced

It turns sixteen years of engineering conversation into 207 articles backed by 8,583 episode citations, covering the rules of thumb, failure modes, and real-world numbers that rarely make datasheets. The site is unusually explicit about its method: no signup, no tracking, and every claim linked to a verbatim transcript passage.
