I own an Axim X30h, and as anyone who has owned one knows, playing video uses up the battery very fast. Original high capacity batteries are very expensive, so I built a power supply to allow regular batteries to be used. Here's a schematic: What do you think?
very nice, also I like how you've left the components viewable, but the real question is how longer does it extend the battery life?
You can always have a 12 battery pack in your pocket (if you have big pockets) Its awesome though your work and mod! I have an ancient ipaq 1945 (release year ) and I was thinking of modding it some day. Maybe this summer when i have some time. How about you? Have you though of ever taking the battery cover off and letting your dremel slide into that soft plastic? PPC battery window mod
Very nice find with that regulator. Now if only there was a way to not use the big clunky dell adaptor to hook it to the battery pack...
Lightning. It's been done already, sorry. Kinda unreliable though. Batts are more or less wireless power though. Well, if it works, that's good. All I can say really, as my old palmpilot doesn't even have a color screen It gets the job done though.
Thats why I added "good" to the wireless power. Good meaning easily controllable and safe. Sry if I sound like a jerk, its 2:35AM and I feel weird HA HA I tried watching movies on my PPC but The screen is too small. I play NES alladin though once in a while
I like it! I have an x-30 and don't like how little I get out of a fully charged battery. My NES emulator must live on!!! Nice job with it, to be certain. What's the new life expectancy? I may need to craft one of these myself.
