Nah I never finished. Not because it is impossible, I just completely lost interest. If you're familiar with the 555 timer, it doesn't take too much effort to get it to work.
BTW Don't use my schematic for your project; it is flawed.

I'm not much for complicated paint schemes; you never see them on consumer electronics or really anything for that matter. If I were you I would go with either straight white, 2 distinct colors, or black. If you make it black, then maybe you should...

From the site: "80% of initial capacity at 1000 cycles"
Most of the other batteries have a cycle life of >500 times. I don't know about the 4700 or 5000mAh ones though.
Re: Downing's 3rd N64p "The Nimbus II"
Glad to see you've started another one! What I really like about your projects is that they always get finished in a timely fashion.
Beautiful job with the case btw.
Well, I found a pinout of the chip (JRC NJM2284) that capacitor is connected to. It's used to switch video signals. In the datasheet, the test circuit shows a 10uf cap connected to pin 8, which is what I need.
So I guess I solved my own problem. :dahroll:
