Title: Tiny Screen Buttons
Post by: BSeaward on December 14, 2021, 12:10:54 AM
Hey all,
So I recently have gotten into making pieces and accessories for action figures. I’m super excited with the products that Tiny C has to offer and incorporating them into my pieces. I have a couple of questions in regards  to the hard button on the Tiny Screen. I want to use the tiny screens  in some of my control surfaces and vehicles. But with my projects (at least the way they are designed right now) it would be hard to access the buttons on the tiny screen, like the on/off switch. Wondering how much of an issue is this? Like, can I install the tiny screen with the on/off switch “permanent ly” in the ON position? I most definitely will be using the IR remote so I still have control of the screen. I’m just trying figure out just how much redesign i have to do to accommodate the screen. I’m hoping I can just get away with designing a port for recharging.

Any direction or advice is greatly welcomed!!!
Thanks everyone
Ben

Ben,

You can definitely leave the TV on. This forum post might give you some ideas on how you can provide power to the kit: http://forum.tinycircuits.com/index.php?topic=2383.0

Let me know if you need clarification or have additional questions.
