Anyone Built xDrip with one of these yet? #148

Open Tatt2edone opened 8 years ago

I recently stumbled on this after searching for an easier way to solder the hm-10/11 bare boards. They seem to be more abundant that assembled ones. A friend pointed out a BT board at OSHPark, that got me thinking maybe someone designed an xDrip board and they did.

I haven't got the boards yet, they are being manufactured, I am just on the hunt for the parts needed to finish the build when the boards arrive, maybe this set up is over kill or over complicating this, but I am hoping to get the smallest foot print I can and the least amount of parts movement in the case.

Anyway, just looking for some thoughts about future builds with this pcb board

I sourced all the parts, my electrical controls friend did all the soldering... Have yet to test it out as I have to still program the Wixel and solder the battery. Looks good though and cost what not all that bad

Yes, this is exellent, although hard to solder (for me, atleast). Had to buy some solder paste..

He also made a parakeet pcb, which we are gonna test now (he is soldering the first one for me, to see if everything is ok)
