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

@moosepr
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!!!

@TheNerdyDev
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!

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. :-)

Wow! Thanks a lot :). Yes, it's very real :).
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.
