Guest elr Posted September 30, 2003 Report Share Posted September 30, 2003 Great work Batute! So, kelan namin pwede i test yan... ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest fraser Posted September 30, 2003 Report Share Posted September 30, 2003 Very very neat. Personally, I wouldn't bother with a cradle. They always look poor, I'd rather have a wire that came out from somewhere in the console, where you can put the phone. This way, you can pick it up and use it in one hand. This would probably be safer than a cradle, as you can easilly dial/answer finding the buttons by touch, rather than leaning across and having to take your eyes from the road. Will you be publishing schematics / howto's for this? Also, is the audio output in stereo? That would be cool, you could be walking down the street, headset on listening to an mp3, get to the car & dock the phone, and continue listening on the car system. Way cool!

Guest grifter Posted September 30, 2003 Report Share Posted September 30, 2003 niiiiice! next thing to do is find a good plastic molder. design a better-looking casing/cradle, and we're all set to mass produce! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Geeklord Posted September 30, 2003 Report Share Posted September 30, 2003 PhP 500. my apologies for the wrong price (PhP 5,000). However I repeat, he's the only one who claims it works. And if that's any promise of his workmanship, then I wouldn't want to be parted from my money just yet. In any case the one batute is working on looks mighty fine. I hope you can work in a power cable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Will Posted September 30, 2003 Report Share Posted September 30, 2003 hi batute CONGRATULATIONS on the kit.. i've been tinkering with one for months, and as it looks only about 5% as complex as yours, i've decided to give up!... please let me know if you are selling the pcb's, as i'd be very interested in creating one in the UK..

Guest rodnav Posted October 1, 2003 Report Share Posted October 1, 2003 Congratulations batute, maybe you could mass produce it as grifter said and let smart do the marketing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest elr Posted October 1, 2003 Report Share Posted October 1, 2003 Congratulations elr, maybe you could mass produce it as grifter said and let smart do the marketing. Sorry to disappoint you pards, pero si batute ang gumawa non.. :? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest grifter Posted October 1, 2003 Report Share Posted October 1, 2003 or just post the schematic diagram here. Just say YES to open source! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest batute Posted October 1, 2003 Report Share Posted October 1, 2003 fraser, It is ok not to have a cradle, but the idea was to have a complete car kit with no wires dangling all around the vehicle. It can still work with your idea, as in my current setup. Yes, the output is in stereo. So you can play your MP3's and WMA files while on the go. The output is not that bad as of the moment, but there is still some room for improvement. grifter, I think the only way to make it look neat is to have someone make moulds for the plastics. PCB's are no problem, I can find someone who can manufacture them locally with full certifications, provided I have the money to pay for it. ;) Plastics are a bit dificult, i.e., no experience.... Schematics, I might post it when I get mad....hehehehehe Will, I might, I'll keep you posted on the developments of the PCB. Initial design is about 5cm square using ordinary components. Using SMD's we might be able to shrink it further to fit a DB25 shell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mariolouis Posted October 3, 2003 Report Share Posted October 3, 2003 could you please post here even just the pinouts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest fraser Posted October 3, 2003 Report Share Posted October 3, 2003 I'm all for open source. Post the schems!! :wink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest batute Posted October 7, 2003 Report Share Posted October 7, 2003 Bad news guys, somebody have already bought the schematics and paid the research. They will be manufacturing the kit for local consumption. So I won't be able to post it or take anymore pics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
