Still available?
This is relevant to my interests! :)
I've almost pulled the trigger on a 5v IFI supply several times, but was waiting to hear more about the long promised 5v supply from Allo, which is still due...
Thanks all for the good thoughts.
I have a spare Pi lying around so a DIY NAS could be the way to go for the cost of some network cable.
For around £30 a 256gb micro SD card appeals for its...
I currently have two USB sticks directly in the pi. So would it sound better to use a spare pi as a NAS to hold these USBs, then link both to the router with Ethernet cables?
Or buy a 256gb micro...
Just trying Volumio for the first time in ages, after being generally very happy with an old version of Moode.
Very impressed! Such an easy set up, and great extra functionality options. In...
NVM :)
Are you fucking psychic?! :)
Where do you buy these inline switches please?
And why the need for one between powerbank and Pi - any reason not to have it connected while charging?
I'm probably going to buy a battery for my Pi (tired of waiting for the long anticipated 5v SMPS from Allo).
Do you just leave it plugged in and turn it off/on at the plug socket as necessary?
Thanks! I will investigate :)
I haven't updated in a year or so - any SQ upgrade, or just new toys to play with?!
Any update on the 5v PSU, ETA?
:please:
:thumbsup:
That's mighty charitable of you! I might be tempted to give it a whirl. :)
Do you have any sense of the SQ difference with the previous Moode build? I've seen it suggested that it isn't quite as...
I will follow this thread with interest.
I power mine with a cheap wallwart, but I have been tempted to buy an ifi one ever since hearing the improvement that using a cheap battery pack made. A...
I have the original Boss and follow Allo developments quite closely as I believe they are putting out very good products. Am very interested in their Volt+D amp and upcoming 5v smps.
Were cost no...
I was a burn in skeptic, but found it undeniable that my inexpensive D class amp improved over a couple of weeks (a few hours per day, so probably around 15-20 hours). Searching around online later...
Moode has been great for me, but I was upset to see that it had moved to some kind of complicated self-build update process that requires computing nous above my meagre abilities! Is this still the...
I also don't understand these constant references to "faff" and "bother" of setting up a Pi.
Flash the card, set a few settings if you like (or leave at default) then forget about it and just...
Great stuff Josie!
As a current Boss owner I can't quite justify upgrading to v1.2, but for anybody reading who might be tempted to try the Boss, this is great news.
I'm still waiting on their...
Great stuff, thanks.
So the switch disconnects the battery from the pi without having to faff with about with cables, then you just plug in the battery into its charger, leaving it all in situ?
...
Cheers, that would be great. That is something I did wonder about.
But saying that, the one I've just experimented with is a cheap no brand thing off of Amazon that was gifted to me by someone who...
Thanks Grant. Do you turn the pi off after each use? How often do you have to disconnect the battery to recharge, and how long is it to fully charge, roughly?
I've just tried my Pi + Allo Boss set up with a very cheap 5v power bank. I was skeptical that I would hear any difference, but the improvement was very noticeable. I went back to the switching power...
