Yeah, i will start adding some new stuff again soon. I was working on making the module smaller.
I had it neatly added to a snack size rice crispy box. Looked pretty sharp actually. But it was too big. And I don't think my wife liked people always admiring it, it was quite noticeable.
But since I ordered some 328 chips, I decided to just throw them on a small proto board. Now it is the nice size of just being 1cm thicker then the actual display with an integrated magnet so it stays in place on the dash!

I am sure we can come up with some fun ideas for this project. A great foundation is already laid with it being a consistent, cheap, and geeky module.
