I think like most people I stumbled over one of Wermy's how to videos one night and I knew I needed to make one. This was my first adventure into the Raspberry Pi so I kept the build basic.
[spoiler="Parts list"]Everything was sourced state side.
From Adafruit
Teensy-LC Without Pins = $13.95
PowerBoost 1000 = $19.95
3.7v 2500mAh Battery = $14.95
Pi Zero = $5.00
Micro USB Breakout Board = $1.50
JST-PH Battery Extension Cable = $1.95
Tactile Switch Buttons (6mm tall) x 10 pack = $2.50
Adafruit Mono 2.5W Class D Audio Amplifier = $3.95
From Ebay
2 broken DMGs = $26.67
Common ground PCB = $7.59
Gearbest style screen =$19.98
Octopus hub = $7.60
I used the DMG headphone jack, power switch and speaker. The volume pots where bad so I when without.
I scavenged most the parts for the preamp from the old boards and whatever else I could find.
And a helder designed power strip.
I think that's all of it.[/spoiler]
Finished
Guts
It was a fun little project. The audio isn't great but I don't use it that often. I've already started rounding up parts for another build.
My First No Frills GBZ (done)
