ALTAIR 8800 EMULATOR KIT
The Altair 8800 is a microcomputer designed in 1974 and based on the intel 8080 CPU. Using only switches to program and leds for output. Even my DIY build computer has a hex keyboard input and 7segments display.
Omnicharge 20+ Usb C Wireless Power Bank 20,000mAh Power Delivery 3.0 + Quick Charge 3.0
You can use this as a mobile soldering station using a TS100 soldering iron.

Got this one now, superb. Will post about this
Tv Stick Dab Fm Dvb-t RTL2832 R820T Sdr RTL-SDR Dongle Stick Digitale Tv Tuner Ontvanger TVSDVBS816
Modded this one, as part of my modular amiga system where i wanted to remake every part onto 10×15 euro prints. So i could swap things out for other boards.
Memory expansion
512k .. missing in action Go a new one in … ?
Boot selector
Swaps df0 and df1 DIY version was a wirewrap ic socket with a cross switch, now i have a Gotek buffered switching module with can be actvated with a keystroke. (Gotek post)
Keyboard mod
Hidden key (in the space of the stands, which triggered a extra key stroke)
Kickstart selector
A print you can insert in the ROM socket of your amiga. Had only 1.2 and 1.3. Now there are many .. like diagnostic roms. I made a altered 1.2 version .. which was unusable .. i f*cked it up
SID mod
Added a sid parallel on the 8020 CIA chip
Gotek driver emulator
I made a arduino version to read disks. (Other post) But this is a disk image drive emulator. See Gotek post
Boot sector warn
Piezo beeper which warned me when a boot sector was being written (virus alert)
Sound filter fix
Amiga audio filter enhancer, using capacitors and resistors
A fancy keyboard….. At last a clickety keyboard. A Razer Blackwidow V3 mechanical keyboard. I’m not a gamer, but i like the clickety sounds. RGB leds are always nice to play with.
One of the nice things about razer is the Linux support!
Put the box flat on the table to switch off. When you put it on one side, it will controll your lights brightness. 20,40,60,80 and 100%, just by rotating and putting it down on its sides.

I’ve modded several LSC devices, most of them i could flash with esp-easy or tasmota. Why mod it? Because it uses the cloud .. i’d like to keep control myself. Just connect/solder a USB to TTL Converter UART Module like below. (See other posts)
But this alarm was different, i ended up removing the chip and replace it with a ESP12.
Warning .. loud! .. Yes almost xmasA WR3 is almost like a ESP-12
So now i had to figure out which GPIO pins and how to control them.
#1/bin/bash
# Flashed ESP Easy on this one
# When i did this, 2019, you needed version 2.1-beta1
# GPIO 4 controls LED

Update 20221208 – removed internals
Removed my old hack and replaced it with a Wemos D1. Added a LED Next to do .. add a amplifier using a LM356/358
This was made using an Arduino and some buttons. I’m using Fbreader and Ebookdroid on the tablet.
Code:
Note: Volume buttons work for both apps, if you want to use other keys, you need to put a keymap.xml file in your fbreader books directory on your android device to remap those!
