      What does the Battery 100% and Battery 20% do, and why are their 2 of them?

        @lilbud looks like there are 1 separate power circuits, i think one is for the Pi and the other for the screen?

        want to get a tft into your project, look no further than here https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/7464/ili9341-tft-screen-guide

          Yes that is correct, one circuit for each. There are LED's on the sides that will indicate when battery is 100%, 20% or if battery is charging.

            @stahl80 I gather you're using the IO pins and you've programmed the pi to do that? :D That's sick!!!

              I'm using a powerblock from petrockblogg to safely shut down the pi. That does use the io pins to achieve that.

                      Nicely documented, it's cool to see it grow from stuff-in-a-carton-box to proper finished!

                      I love how you finished the cutouts for the pads, with rubber foam for that nice fit and feel. Great!

                      You should be proud of yourself!

                      If tetris has thought me anything, it's that errors pile up and that accomplishments dissappear.

                          The quality of the finish is simply amazing.

                              I almost couldn't believe it. Looks like a photo-shopped retro gaming dream. But when I saw the photograph of the "guts" of this James Bond suitcase I actually did start to believe it. Some handy people can make pieces of art w/ a Pi. Wish I had such talent. :-)

                                You should try to build something, I'm sure you can make it! And a bouns is all the knowledge you get when doing it.

                                    Great work @stahl80. I can see that a lot of care and attention to detail went into this and it has really paid off. The finished article is fantastic.

                                    Well done!
