Today I’ve busted my helmet, kjam and bike :)
Bikes and Camera, Personal December 10th, 2006Oh dear, where do I start? At the beginning I guess.
I’m trying to get a 5V 1A USB plug for my motorbike. The idea is to actively power/charge my KJam and GPS on long bike trips. That way I can listen to music, record trip times, and stuff.
…So I was trying to wire up a decent headphones into [rather inside] my motor cycle helmet. I ummm dropped my helmet, on bracket that was holding my Kjam and DC converter.
Everything is more or less ok though. Busted visor pod on the side of my helmet and the pcb on the converter , the usb plug on the bottom of my Kjam is an odd shape, and I shorted a fuse for the accessories line on my bike.
All up I guess there is only $50 worth of damage, but I think I might have to rethink my plan of attack with some bluetooth headphones or ’something’.
