I actually just realized that that board is too big for my project. I found this one which is smaller but does not have the boosting feature. https://www.sparkfun.com/products/10217 It should still be enough to power the pro mini and the motors correct?

That was incredibly helpful! I really appreciate it :) So when wiring it to charge, do I extend wires from the battery from the beginning of the circuit or do I just choose any point of the circuit to run the positive and negative from the battery to the 5V and GND on the charger/booster? EDIT...

I need them to run a 3.3V Arduino Pro Mini which is going to control a tiny pager motor and another micro dc motor which i think is rated at 3V, an LED switch, and a separate led. Im afraid one of those cells wouldnt be enough so i wanted to wire two in series. The arduino wont be running...

So this power cell will charger the two batteries above separately?

I'm very glad I asked! Thank you very much!

Hello everyone, Can anyone explain to me where I would add a battery charger to a circuit where a battery is already wired into? If the battery is already wired into a circuit, should I just connect the charger directly to the positive and negative of the battery (extended wires from the...

I received an array of array of sweet optics and a driver! Im not sure what type of driver it is though. I have my secret santas real name but im not sure what their username is, and im not going to say their real name for security reasons. But if my secret santa can let me know what type of...

Happy Happy Happy Happy Birthday!! We are your forum family. Don't you ever forget it :yh:

Oh okay! I see what youre saying. What if i simply sell the idea? Or would it not matter because its already out there for the public to see without a patent? Or could I still do something with it to make money?

I appreciate the advice. I agree, its not worth the money to patent something that most likely "wont make it". Anyway, i appreciate the nice comments :) Matt

I looted into that but it costs A LOT of money that I simply do not have for a patent. :undecided: You really think so? I guess I can give it a shot haha. Thanks for the support guys :)

I appreciate that :) It means a lot. I will definitely take your advice about the exposure. I dont know if Marvel will buy it though haha ;)

Okay, thank you for your response.

Okay. What about considering the labor? This took a long time and a lot of work to make. Would that increase your overall price?

I dont mean to bring back an old thread, but i really want to know what you guys would honestly pay for this device if you decided that you wanted to purchase it. Thank you, Matt

thank you :)

^ thats weird? I thought i answered those questions it looks like i forgot? Anyway, i might take this out on halloween, but i did not make this for halloween. And i dont really have a costume to put with it. I wanted to do iron man but the costumes are insanely expensive. And i would range...

What would be a realistic price that you guys would pay for this device? I don't plan on selling, I'm just very curious. Thanks! Matt

I live in Carol Stream :) How about yourself? It does feel good :) I appreciate the kind words very much :) and thank you for the rep! :)

Thanks!! :) And i might take it out for halloween, but i didnt make it for halloween. It cost me about 350-450 to make. But it was such a grueling build. There were days where i was working on it from morning to night for a straight week and i didnt get all that far. And that is because i...
