Polaroid Radio

thingiverse

This is my project of a radio that is powered with the rest current of an polaroid film pack. The motivation comes from polaroid itselfe, because they already produced sth. similar years ago. All the electronics is basically a DIY radio built kit, which i bought online from Conrad electronics. I also built in a step up converter because the radio requires 9V, but the film catridges only have 6V. But i figured it out that it would also work with just 6V. To insert the film catridge you have to first dissasebly these the same way you would recycle them. The radio itself consists of 3 parts which can be put together without glue. I think this is a great porject which forces one to recycle the catridges. Feel free to remix it and share it.
