LilyGO T-Beam SUPREME Case Comparison: Cost, Durability, and Field Practicality
After surveying available case designs and materials, printing several variants, and comparing service-bureau options, I concluded that the Alley Cat case offers the best balance of durability, access, and discretion for real field use. While I specified nylon for my print, other materials such as ASA (Acrylonitrile Styrene Acrylate) are also viable; the rest of…

A Face Plate For Decibel Monitor
The aircraft decibel monitoring project I am building has as its central component a printed circuit board (“PCB”) made by PCB Artists called I2C Decibel Sound Level Meter Module (“Decibel Monitor”). (I2C stands for the electronic circuitry protocol Inter-Integrated Circuit (pronounced as “eye-squared-see” or “eye-two-see”).) Since the Decibel Monitor uses I2C, it’s a cinch to…
