NESPi Controller

I have modified the Bill of Materials and assembly steps to include information on how to use an aftermarket iPhone 5 battery (~1500 mAh) instead of the 500 mAh LiPo.

I have done an initial charge test and play test for about an hour. The battery never got hot on me so I'm assuming that all is well with this modification. Keep in mind that this hack uses an Adafruit PowerBoost charger with a battery that it wasn't designed for.

Currently looking at using an Iphone 4 battery for this project's juice. It's around 1400 mAh... So about triple the current size and dirt cheap on eBay. If it doesn't melt or explode things, I'll do a write-up on how to use them instead of the 500 mAh LiPo.

I moved my files over to Thingiverse so I would have a single repository to update when sharing this project on multiple websites. The URL is in the links section. For convenience, it is also pasted here.

1. Filleting around corners
2. Larger HDMI hole so it doesn't pull out as easy
3. Pi Zero pulled further back into case. Only SD card is exposed now. Previous version had a part of the Pi Zero board exposed.

I will be moving the files to Thingiverse. However, it won't let me publish for 24 hours after creating a new account. In the mean time I've attached the files to this project.

Making tweaks to Pi Zero mounting placement and HDMI port opening. Hope to have a new STL file in a day or two.

I let a 6 year old play with my NESPi Controller yesterday. He kept pulling the HDMI cable loose from the controller. It needs a better fit. Lesson learned: If you really want to test the design of your device, let a young kid play with it...
