My friends keep telling me, to get a job, and pay my bills.
Seems there’s some power left, to keep me going on.
And maybe one day, I can laugh about this funny song.

People keep asking me …

… if i will ever, make some cash.
They think I’d better throw my synthesizers in the trash.
And to be honest, more than once I thought they may be right.
Maybe I better get a job, and work from 9 to 5.

I know I can go on, for days or weeks or even years.
Before I have to quit, and try to start a new career.
Keep doing music, all day long, and wait ’till I succeed.
All back to dreams, life and luxury, fight my dreams !

I will not do it any longer, if the dream starts to fade.
Or if I thought, i’m doing wrong, at the end, of the day.
Thing is, i’m so confident, that I am on my way.
Don’t need no fortune, just enough, to live, and be OK

  • Hobby-king is a fun site, apparently :D
    They have this universal charger which fits my purpose beautifully!
  • So I will be building my own battery pack out of the DealExtreme Li-ion cells I got.
    Still have to look into making some way to monitor current going in/out the pack, and report battery status back to the system etc..
    Looks like this circuit combined with this circuit should work …

This is my attempt to do so

    1. Main Platform
       
      I scored an IGEPv2 some time ago and been playing with it (a lot!)
      Working:

      • Gentoo (100% updated, running ISEE’s kernel)
      • Bluetooth
        This allows me to connect to my BT GPS module (rfcomm), BT keyboard (with regular HID support) and WiiMote (with libcwiid)
      • Wireless
        Although there is no Monitor mode it seems :( So i’m using a USB ZD1211 module for kismet
      • Sound (perfectly supported by ALSA)

      Not Working :

      • Video Output
        I’ve added the SVideo connector as by direction of ISEE but their kernel has no support for this.
        My current efforts have been unfruitful, but the future looks bright ;)

        •  

    2. Power Platform
       
      Still building this but ordered some parts already :
      • Cells
        Going to (probably) be 6 18650 3.7V 2500mAh protected cells run in a 3S2P setup to give me 11.1V at 5000mAh
      • Charger
        I’ve been playing with the MAX1811 that I sampled some time ago, and am now able to use this to charge one cell reliably.
        Looking into making a true BMS around an Arduino and some PWM switched Buck convertor to charge these 3 cells.
        (Also looking at just skipping this step and buying some premade 3 cell charger)
      • 5V DC-DC
        After joining ##electronics again, I quickly got some help finding the supreme  part for this  platform.
        DPCAV has this excellent module which will fit my purpose perfectly.

        •  

    3. Interfaces
       
      I would like to use my HMD for this project, but as video is not working I’ve ordered a Nokia 3310 LCD on PCB from nuelectronics. This screen has a simple SPI interface, which I can directly interface with the IGEPv2 through a level shifter.
      The PCB also has some buttons, but I’ll probably end up using the wiimote as buttons for this display.
       
    4. Case
       
      I really need to start looking at packaging all this….

    Feel free to post any comments/questions :)
