deep red board done

When my new Psion started freezing erractically, I took it apart. When I removed the mobo from the chassis, a microswitch fell out. Ah. Short circuits make computers do weird things. I soldered the surface mount switch back in place and buttoned everything up.

Then, it occurred to me, with all the soldering equipment out, I might as well complete the circuit board for the deep red flashlight. I followed the Express PCB diagram I had done. It took me about 3 hours. After the large cap and the right-angle socket were attached, I connected some temporary power.



Woo hoo! It works!
