Oh my dear Lord.... Just read through the discussion following the guide from @Chiz - think I'm ditching my Sabrent and going PWM!!

What on Earth is that thing in the middle??

Ok, pretty much at the end of my tether here! I've been trying to get the ATTiny 167 / Digispark Pro to work all day, and most of last night. I'm beginning to grasp the basics, but every time I try to push even a basic blink sketch to it, the connection times out with a flash write error. I can't wo...

Wow, nice find with those GBCs!

Looking forward to the grand unveiling of your *something*!

Doh! Schoolboy error - I've actually not seen the original screen still in the case but without the screen protector, totally didn't recognise it!

Really interesting to see how your build has evolved from your original plans into something more in line with Wermy's build, especially with that screen. Is it a monochrome panel?

And your tippy-top-secret element has me intrigued

Could you not slide the "top" end of the battery (with the circuit) up into the top of the battery compartment first, then drop the bottom end in?

Edit: spelling

@Fleder I took a look at the Arduino ISP as well at the ATTiny manufacturer's version, and it's all a bit daunting! Having zero experience with Arduino based systems I'm going to have to start from square one and follow some basic tutorials, but good to hear that the chips all work in a similar fash...

@Camble Yeah I've got no worries with soldering to the port connectors, just trying to work out how to get the thing off the board in the first place! (No through board anchor points!)

My real worry is how to go about programming it!

Think this guide should help (thanks @Fleder!)
