Damn these Noctua NF-A4x10 5v are beautiful in Black with the Brown bumpers. Been a while since we could stock this color way. I need to get the tariff invoice from UPS before I list them I have an idea what that looks like but until I get the final pricing I can't list these for sale.

Getting ready to send off the first test unit for @darthcloud.blueretro.com threw together a test firmware to validate the addressable LEDs since they were a pain to solder. It's so nice to see them shine. #DreamcastBlueRetro

#LCDJewel we have life, booting a simple bootloader. I'm excited to get back to work with this monster of a MCU.

New Protos today just need to pencil in time to get them assembled today.

Always love to see the final panels for these projects. #WavePhoenix adapters will start shipping soon, just need to assemble and QC test

They are so little, looking at Monday 10am CST as the launch for round 1, not a pre-order we will have them in stock and begin shipping when we return from Memorial Day holiday.

I customized mine to be slightly smaller for a custom shell

It's so little, definitely pushing my soldering skills lol

We have life on the #wavephoenix Wavebird adapter. Gonna start printing a shell and start the tedious task of crimping the wires for the adapters.

The final bit to validate on the refresh of the RT4k SVideo(enhances)/CVBS adapter. Easy solder free access to the serial port interface, allowing for serial connectivity to external switchers.
Simple JST PH 3pin connector to keep the form factor as small as possible.
Expect restock by Friday.

GDEMU mount for the RE fans coming to Laser Bear soon.

Refresh of the RT4K SVideo(Enhanced)/CVBS to DB15 adapter, we had some complaints on the original this increases the size of the thumb wheels, and makes it possible to remove the screws from the adapter if desired. There are also pads to bread out the serial coms from the DB15.

Gotta get my thermal probe and figure out where the PSU for this PS2 disappeared to, but the fit for the new Noctua 60x15 fan is perfect. Makes for a really low priced bracket and potentially a simple resistor based fan adapter.

Filling in for shipping while my shipper is out on leave for the next week or two. The temptation was too strong, I ate from my own supply. #gummybears

Meet the MiSTer.2 actively cooled M.2 adapter for MiSTer stacks. Should mount to most MiSTer stack setups. Simple tool free M.2 install. With just 4 mounting screws to attach to your MiSTer stack.

Rack mounting my gScartSW is gonna clean things up so much.

The LCD Jewel project is still in the works, it is moving to a new MCU. The ESP32-P4 is a powerful video enabled MCU that is designed for multimedia, which is what I want the Jewel to do. Here is my first PCB Test, I am just waiting on the P4 to drop for mass manufacturing.

Meet the CEC-Enabler, a RP2040 based CEC to USB Keyboard interface for #MiSTer
Software will be open source, allowing for changes in the future to come from the community.
It's based on an open source project called Pico-CEC targeting the same functionality for Home Theater PCs.

I don't talk about my personal life much here, but I think this is something worth sharing. Next weekend I am marrying my favorite person and moving into a new stage of my life. I just wanted to post something happy and exciting.

Something new is brewing at the shop. Who wants to control their #mister setup with their TV remote?

Finalizing some adjustments to the Dreamcast BlueRetro board before ordering the next rev. Core BR functionality has been tested now it's all the fun extras like custom save batteries and RGB LEDs.
