Getting ShaveDuino working

[richelbilderbeek]

Plugged in Arduino Uno, removed Arduino again, then ran dmesg:

richel@richel-laptop:~$ dmesg | tail

dmesg output:

When I did the same with a ShaveDuino, no new dmesg messages were created.

Peter Struwe suggested to solder te battery on the boards, if and only if no light are on. I am only 90% sure the lights remain on, so I have to check.

According to Philips, the battery must be soldered on

After soldering on the battery, got the following dmesg log:

Note that:

• the battery must be charged by USB. A red light will flash when making the connection
• a green light will start to emit light when the board is ready

It does not work anymore! After investigation by, among others, Felix O'Keefe, it was found that the voltage of the battery was reduced to 1.7 V instead of ?3.3. In other words: the battery was dead (I added this to the ShaveDuino feedback). Felix O'Keefe will replace the battery by a new one.

Obsoleted.
