Hardware mod issue - Battery Babysitter
Posted: Tue Jul 04, 2017 3:43 pm
Hey guys, great product. Works just as advertised.
Battery Babysitter (https://www.sparkfun.com/products/13777)
My question is what's the easiest way to remote the master on/off slide switch? I want to build the circuit board into a device and bring the "switch" out to a side panel with a micro usb port for charging... thereby allowing me to turn the switch off for long term storage. Desoldering the slide switch is one option. Or I could solder wires on and bypass. From the schematic it just grounds a pin on the main chip. Your suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks
Ken Horner
