    E-bay Green Module - Not Bad!

    Yea, I need to get this 4.2V module properly metered... because my old 30mw module pulled 330mA and this "200mw" one is pulling 488mA. I'd love to post pics, but it's pressure fitted in a host, and I don't think i can get it out. Any ideas on how i can get this module properly tested?

    E-bay Green Module - Not Bad!

    My higher voltage module pulls 488ma and has been working perfectly for close to a total of 4 hours running time. Sorry to hear about the failure of your's Alfa Romeo.

    Where can I buy more of these?

    I'm looking for some of these. I don't want to order them from optotronics due to the $20 min limit and quite excessive shipping. Anybody know anywhere where these are sold?

    DIY Li-Ion Battery Charger.

    yea... good thing the proper chargers came in, but when i did use that charger, it was very closely monitored and i didn't let it charge for more than 30m to prevent something like that from happening. Thanks for the sweet video about Li-Ions exploding too.

    the host was hacked away from a previous "experiment" which is why i needed to replace the module in the first place. and the ground wire isn't soldered to anything it's just used to push the module against the host. I know it doesn't look pretty, but it works! thanks for the feedback.

    DIY Li-Ion Battery Charger.

    well after powercycling the phone a few times, it finally started up and it just says "Invalid Battery", but it still charges it, so it's all good. EDIT: never mind, it stopped charging, I guess i'll have to replace the cell in the original battery with these wires..

    WTB: Laser Module

    nice job packaging it, it took me a few minutes to figure out how to get the laser. i'd give rep but it won't let me give you rep twice in a row. also i think you accidentally shipped a lens type thing with it because I found it in my shoe ~2h after opening the package.

    WTB: Laser Module

    Sweet, that looks more like a standard module than the module I pulled from this Rayfoss host, but it'll be fine. just need a module. also anything on the price? I tried that, and it said he wasn't accepting PM's. Do I need a certain number of posts to PM someone?
