Pancake IoT project box 1 - ESP 8266 / Arduino 2560, OrangePi, RaspberyPi, ultrasonic sensor, pasive infrared, lipo or AAs 2 upto 6 batteries

It's designed to be used with the pancake.cloud college project, but it functions equally well as a standalone project enclosure. With an ESP8266 or Arduino Nano on board, you can easily fit 2-4 AA batteries or a lipo battery pack. Using an Arduino Due or Mega2560 expands this capacity to 2-4 AA batteries. The enclosure is also compatible with Orange Pi and Raspberry Pi boards, although some may require slight adjustments to fit snugly inside. The amount of space available for batteries depends on whether you choose to populate the sensors or not. Without sensors, I've managed to fit two Mega2560 boards and a single cell lipo battery pack, leaving just enough room for other components. Given its high degree of customizability, I deliberately avoided specifying exactly what can be fitted inside or how, allowing you to exercise your creativity in designing the PCB layout. Some configurations work better than others, but with persistence and experimentation, it's possible to accommodate a wide range of possibilities. The enclosure features holes on both the bottom and top for installing small slider switches and push buttons (totaling 2 sliders and 2 buttons). If you choose not to use the front holes for sensors, you can modify the design to accommodate an LCD screen instead. Alternatively, you could turn the back panel around to create a unique display configuration. To add custom standoffs, simply glue small rubber gaskets in place using epoxy resin and then secure them with self-tapping screws. If you have any specific ideas or modifications in mind, feel free to let me know, and I'll do my best to accommodate your requests. This enclosure was designed with reusability and adaptability in mind, making it ideal for multiple project scenarios.
