Slot the battery indicator into the insert as shown below. Secure it into the slot with 2 screws (highlighted in blue). Any black screws used in the Mini Remote will do.
Note:
Use a small nylon washer/nut between the screw and the 3d print. If not, ignore using the screws and simply use hot glue to secure it to the print. It works!
Solder 2 wires to the positive and negative terminals of the battery indicator and connect them in parallel to your battery, (+ve connects to +ve, -ve connects to -ve).
Note (Optional):
You can simply solder them onto the inputs of the TP4056A pcb where your battery connects to!
Press the button on the cover to read the battery level of the remote!
Hahahaha sorry! I literally had 2 hours of free time to design it yesterday, so went ahead and got it out of the way… didn’t think i’d be releasing it this soon too.
Some SLA prints for some forum orders!
Sadly, not the one with the battery meter. ): Would have to order a new top cover for that. The plain version looks pretty cool too!
Hmm only issue I’m having is the battery. I’m planning on printing the longer handle. @Linny’s solution photos look like the 30mm dimension is crucial but the other length could maybe go a bit longer?
