Geiger Counter Parts - Remix

thingiverse

This case is based on the original Instructable by Prabhat here: https://www.instructables.com/id/DIY-Geiger-Counter-With-an-ESP8266-and-a-Touchscre/ I made a few modifications to his original design with the following component changes. I used this large panel rocker switch for the power switch: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00VU381FW/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I also added a Lithium-Ion USB battery charger for managing the battery : https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B071RG4YWM/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and a flat 2500mAh battery instead of the one he chose. The battery will run the unit for about 12 hours on a charge: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07BTR3BZ4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I uploaded and ordered a few of his boards from: https://jlcpcb.com/ as he had recommended. This went really smooth and the boards arrived in a few days perfectly laid out. I didn't have the exact 3v to 5v boost converter he had used but was able to wire one on that I got from Amazon for a reasonable price. All in all his design was good, but just decided to play with the case so I could incorporate the battery charger and slim battery.
