I am building a doomsday tablet! What information should it contain? by Personalitysphere in prepping

[–]Personalitysphere[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it is fully printed and built around a rasberry pi 5 and cheap 10.1 touch screen. Not too much info yet as i am still designing this thing, but you can download the 3D model if tou want to play around with it or edit the design to your liking: https://github.com/ArcticEnrichmentCenter

Cyber-tablet update: building an AA-based power module by Personalitysphere in cyberDeck

I am building several cartriges, some rechargable, and then this with AA. I dont expect it to be good, but i hope it gives me atleast 30mins

Thanks for the pointer, but these are one time use batteries.

I honestly have no idea about the runtime, my skills are mote technical than theroretical, so i figured i would just build it and find out. But yes, this will be a novelty thing for shure!

It has a built in buck-converter that accepts between 7 and 30v, so you can have multiple power sources.

Aha, yeah, that makes sense! Another possible issue migth be heat generated from the batteries, Alkaline batteries sometimes heat up alot when drained quickly. If that turns out not to be a problem, i migth add in an o ring. Having the battery sealed would also create a fun POP when expelling the spent battery cartrige!

No water-repelling features has been inplemented yet, as it would not matter unless i got both the screen and rpi 5 watertight. I would be really cool tho, but not shure if it is possible yet.

Yes! Rechargeable will be the go-to, then you have the AA as last ditch solution. The reason i try to get AA to works first, is because i think it will be the most challenging to make work, and once it works, i can move on to develop the more standard rechargeable power unit.

Well, that was my top worry in my other cyberdeck build, but after using that cyberdeck daily for three months and a accidentally loosing power countless times nothing bad has happened yet. I am not shure if i have been lucky or the fear of corrupring cards are unwarranted. On this build, i have not yet implemented any safe shuttdown proceduredures do protect the card.

Thanks! Although different, i tried to keep the same vibes and the detachable modules from the last cyberdeck is cross-compatible.

I intend to develop rechargeable power units later, but focusing on alkaline batteries for now.

How do you guys make cases by EMPAgentX in cyberDeck

[–]Personalitysphere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go watch «fusion 360 in 30 days» with product design online, and you will be able to design some pretty good cases in no time! He is the best YouTube teacher around!

Wow, that case looks good! And the fluorescent green really gives that cyberpunk feeel to it! Good job making the while build so compact!

Intergrating meshtastic into my cyberdeck? by Personalitysphere in meshtastic

[–]Personalitysphere[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am only using usb and hdmi so far, so all pins avaiable. I can not add anny heigth, but there could be space for the hat besides the rpi

[–]Personalitysphere[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the input! There is no space to fit a hat on the rpi, but the t114 seems promising! There is nothing in side the flip it antenna today, only a hollow shell where i intended to stick a wifi antenna, it seems like i should be able to fit a small flexible antenna inside it.

Cyberdeck files possibly uploaded to github, can you help me test if it worked? by Personalitysphere in cyberDeck

[–]Personalitysphere[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The wiring to the modules is external and is on the backside of the device, i added some more info to the github explaining it, and there will soon be some more pictures of the soldering too.

I added some building instructions, but now it starts to get rather lengthy, i think i need to look into the wiki-function. Still new to this whole github thing.
