LCD Controller 12864 Enclosure with Voltmeter

thingiverse

This LCD Controller closely resembles my other design (https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2756990), but it adds a voltmeter to the project, making it more comprehensive. It also features 'snaps' that interlock the bezel with the base, providing a secure fit. The Controller is available on Amazon Prime for around $13; simply search for "12864 LCD Full Graphic Smart Display Controller." A Voltmeter from Banggood.com can be purchased for under $4 by searching for "Geekcreit 0.28 Inch 2.5V-30V Mini Digital Volt Meter." To assemble the project, you will need to move the contrast pot on the LCD Controller to the back to make room for the voltmeter, which requires basic soldering skills and tools. Use a sharp knife to remove the thin film covering the holes for the LCD controls. The LCD is secured with 3mm screws that attach it to the bezel. The voltmeter is held in place by #2 x 1/4 thread forming screws or hot glue. A cutout in the back of the base allows the ribbon cables to exit. The example shown features a bezel printed in Gun Metal Gray PLA, a silver base, and an orange reset button actuator for contrast.
