      Never mind. Checked on Reddit and got a hit for the problem I believe. Just used the PowerBlock installer in the setup menu. Seemed to work at a glance.

      Hi mate! Nice job.
      You've made what I am planning since a while, but due to lack of time (kids and work), I couldn't make it.
      You've chewed me a lot of time.
      Still, I have one or two questions about your wiring.
      The place where the power plug was, is that a bridge that you've placed?
      And had cut any circuit?
      Can you make me a small schema about where to where you've plugged the wires. I am on smartphone so I can't analyse properly the solders you've made.
      The led, is the original one?
      Thanks for your help, and once again, nice work!

      Have you been able to set it up so that the reset button works as anything other than a power button? How did you hook up the power and reset buttons to the power block?

      @petrockblog Thanks for the info!

      I don't have a Hot Air Rework Station, but I may be able to get my hands on one at work.

      Can I just ask, what are your thoughts on the Kynar wiring in the link-would it be suitable? And one thing I cannot find the answer to (unless I have over looked it): how much height does the Powerblock add to the the Pi, just incase I decide to go for a new one?

      Cheers,
      Dan
