Mintyboost v2 + Sugru

Made a mistake of accidentally plugging in a 12V DC into an old LiPo charging circuit and blew the board. Had to salvage the parts and realized that the older MintyBoost v2 board was still working fine. A little bit of handiwork and a 2xAA battery holder brought the device back to life again.

Using Sugru as the modeling clay to protect the electronics of the MintyBoost, the kids came up with a charger the shape of an animal… and this is going to belong to them.
