If you after something retro game related, have a look at this

I would say make sure the folder name is all lower case, and wait till the pi is fully booted. Pop the stick in, it will flash for a bit, then stop for a bit, then flash for a while, then stop flashing. Give it a few seconds to make sure it's happy then pull the stick from the pi and see if you have...

That's a pain! The images are not really critical to the guide, but I will get them shifted

edit : i have moved the images to imgur now, should behave better

Hi Folks, http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-LOCj_5kUHOU/UwyK3WM6SyI/AAAAAAAAAp0/p6uv0fQ_obo/s1600/2.2SP_A.JPG I know SPI screens get a bad write up, they are not as fast, they suffer with 'tearing' and they use up your gpio pins, but they have lots of benefits too! You can get a screen that is ready to roll...

Those protection boards tend to have just the one connection for charging and discharging, so that will be your P+/P-. you could connect your boost board up to there (might be safer to add in a switch so it cant become a drain on your batteries), maybe something like this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2...

How strict is the 7.4v need? The output will range from 8.4v when full, to about 6.6v when empty (depending how low the protection allows on that board). Now you could use one of the jazzy adjustable buck/boost boards that keep your output steady, but you need to watch the current loading, most boar...

That board you have linked from banggood is designed as a charge/project board. It will allow you to throw 8.4v at the battery, and it will (allegedly) ensure that the batteries share that voltage correctly to charge. In my experience, they will even disconnect the battery from the input/output when...

For its size and price, the zero packs a fair punch. The biggest draw to the zero for me is it's low power draw. My project has 2.2 inch screen, gpio buttons, and a 2500mah battery. It lasts about 10 hours on the battery. If I were to do the exact same project with a pi3, the battery would last 1 ho...

That looks like it'll be super hard to find! I'd not really want to cannibalize one in that case... Yeah, I can't even bring myself to take a working DMG-01 apart, never mind something that rare. Always lusted after one back in the day. The local computer shop had one imported, but they were asking...

@abrugsch i get ya, i did re-read your message after my reply and think you could have been on about 30mm center to center for the posts.

Once you have done this one, i have found you even more of a challenge!!
