I'm looking to build a GPS speed meter as small as possible, but am having trouble deciding on a power source. I've got a tiny 2x8 character HD44780 LCD, the EM406 GPS on the way, and will be using a 16 pin PIC of some kind.
Does anyone have any ideas for a suitable power source (battery) for these components, in keeping with the current scale - the GPS is 30mm square, and the LCD is 30x40mm. I don't want something that is going to dwarf all the current components as that means I may as well have gone with a bigger LCD.
