Adafruit 7" Portable HDMI Monitor Case Remix for use as a larger camera monitor

thingiverse

Remixed the case for the Adafruit 7" HDMI Touch Enabled Monitor, utilizing a spare camera LiPo. Adafruit offers a 5" version powered by a camera LiPo and a 7" version running off their own battery pack. This remix combines the best of both projects with fine-tuned control over backlight brightness. Print Settings Printer Brand: LulzBot Printer: TAZ 6 Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: Standard Infill: 20% Notes: Printed with a brim to minimize warping. Translucent blue PLA was used to showcase the electronics and self-built nature of this project. I printed it with supports because the power switch holder is higher than the other switches, and I didn't want it to droop. The supports were easily removed and worked out great. Post-Printing Removed brim and any supports How I Designed This Using the battery holder dimensions from the STLs for the 5" screen, I modified a version of the 7" case to have the same holes for the Canon LP-E6 battery holder and a hole for the wires to pass through. The thickness of the case back was doubled as the original 7" back was too thin/flexible for my liking. This extra stiffness helps the battery holder stay securely fastened. I also deleted the screw stand-offs for the PowerBoost board, which is not needed for this remix. For the case top, I added two more switch holders so each of the hacker points - 50mA, 50mA, and 25mA - could be toggled separately. The large hole for the PowerBoost was removed, and another switch holder was added to control the on/off power from the side where all the cabling is located.
