I just printed your case on a Prusa, and it is amazing! very tight fit, but it is perfect! I tried other cases, but I am definitely using your design. Are you an engineer by trade?

Thanks! I'm glad it worked out for you! I'm using Prusa as well, so that probably helps. Sometimes I wish I worked as an engineer, but then I think I would hate doing it as a job. I've just been doing it for myself for a long time and I'm really obsessive about details, but I'm definitely not an expert!

Did the device still work after the teardown?? Would be sweet to take one apart, upgrade the battery size for weeklong usage and make a new case. Love these little things.
@randomalleycatАй бұрын
It could have potentially, but I was not very careful and I displaced a component or two when I took the shield off. I think it would be better to keep this as is though, and if you want more battery maybe look at the Heltec T114. I have a pager case for it that can take 2000mAh, and I'm about to add GPS to my 3000mAh T114 case.

1:36 The top portion of the case is a major turn off. They must come up with a better solution for antenna. Having a cutout only to have antenna cable sticking out is NOT a good design.

@@randomalleycat I believe the way Apple resolved their wifi issue within the aluminum case on iphone, could have been applied here as well. Also I think there could have been another battery added on the case as there are plenty of space at the bottom. This could have extended the usable time. Overall, this is a fantastic idea which definitely requires little extra work and then it could have been "perfect". I will be waiting to see if they come up with newer edition of this console. Thank you.

I've seen some people mod it with a lipo, but I think they could have made it take 2x21700 batteries and then you could have 10,000mAh. The way the back of the case is designed just makes it feel like there was a lot of redesign to fit things that weren't intended initially.
