Re: Breakout of Powerboost LED's
http://i.imgur.com/nCa80EA.png Aftter desoldering the old led, solder your LED anode (+) side to where the RED mark is and the cathode (-) side to YELLOW (or GREEN, depending on which LED you're working on). I may have mixed up which side the yellow/green LEDs are on, so double check that before yo...

Re: [Guide] Graceful shutdown switch without Pololu
So with the confidence that I wasn't going to fry anything with my circuit :lol: I went ahead and built a mockup on a breadboard and tested my circuit. It seemed to work perfectly fine. I did not notice any LEDs blinking, the charge LED stayed on steady while charging, and stayed off steady when not...

Re: Parts and Tool list if using Helder AIO PCB 2.0
Why does Wermy solder all 4 wires for the external USB port to the AIO board, but then run power to it from the Power Boost? EDIT: The reason I am asking is that I am annotating pictures of each of the components for my own notes. I am sure that this probably already exists somewhere, but I will ac...

Re: [Guide] Graceful shutdown switch without Pololu
cool @ that link. That does look very similar to my idea, even down to the resistor values. But they did not use a transistor at all, which means they're feeding VBAT directly into a GPIO pin while the button is depressed. Is that ok? vbat can potentially reach 5volts (with usb connected and battery...

Re: [Guide] Graceful shutdown switch without Pololu
I want to do this using parts that I have available at home, to save me shipping costs and so I don't have to wait for the shipping. I don't have any JFETs but I did have some NPN transistors. I came up with this idea that I hope will work, and I can't wait to test it, but I wanted to have someone m...
