bluetooth concept
The cheapest, easiest, best feeling, smallest, longest lasting (that's what she said) jukebox iteration.
features
- Bluetooth 5.4
- One Full Range Speaker Driver
- 400mah - 6 hour battery life at moderate volume (calculated)
- 150mah - 2-3 hour battery life at moderate volume (tested on initial prototypes)
- USB-C PD supported charging port (if I solder the 5.1k resistors)
- 3.5mm auxiliary input (sadly only input)
- Stereo pairing capability when you buy 2. They will connect and play bluetooth in stereo :3
notes
I may iterate more to make this model a better product, but the main focus is to make a disc controlled jukebox.
more notes
Though each box costs under $10 in electronics and requires soldering only 4 wires, this project is no cakewalk. It also requires 2 small resistors that I shouldn't be legally allowed to hand solder.
The 0402 resistors are 0.04 inches long and 0.02 inches wide. Picture the tiniest ant you've ever seen scurrying across your desk - that's probably bigger than one of these resistors.
