After a long time (6 month of sketching and drawing), finally got the courage to implementing it. First i use my Acer Travelmate 4061 as pilot testing.

Neat setup. Is the system running on an inverter?

jacksonloh0 · 08-19-2007, 09:51 PM

Yup. I running low on $$$. Might get a M2ATX soon. Much more efficient by the looks of it.

DarquePervert · 08-20-2007, 09:46 AM

M2ATX isn't going to do much for you with a laptop. It's designed for ATX-compatible hardware.
A Carnetix P1900 will serve you better.

Sidewalksalvage · 08-20-2007, 03:31 PM

I'm runnin an M1, its a great unit, but i'm running an ATX board...

jacksonloh0 · 08-20-2007, 10:48 PM

Thanks DarquePervert,

I already switch to PC. My laptop is for work. Don't want to ruin my data in it. Thanks for the suggestion.

I almost forgot, this is the few picture I didn't upload yesterday.

This is my night vision reverse camera. I mod to camo it from prying eye. It is Ribena Berry's hand

And my trackball mouse. I also use wireless keyboard and mic for voice recognition.

And tada... my ride's exterior

The front (day)

jacksonloh0 · 08-24-2007, 08:58 PM

Sarawak. How do you know I am from Malaysia? Holux GPSLim 236B interface with Franson GpsGate 2.5. I use Garmin NRoute. Maps from http://www.malsingmaps.com/portal/

supasigma · 08-27-2007, 08:03 AM

Just a wild guess.(avanzas and ur notebook gave u away)Which part of S'wak? Im in cat city.How accurate is the GPS software? Is the software free or you purchase it online?
Maybe we should meet up to exchange ideas.

SammyB · 08-27-2007, 09:35 AM

What the heck did you use to make those holes???????

jacksonloh0 · 08-28-2007, 02:59 AM

Use knife. I mod it very early in the project.

Hey supra, I am in Cat city right now. For few day actually. Try to spot my car? He he he.

jacksonloh0 · 08-28-2007, 04:32 AM

GPS here is quite good and accurate. I use it most of the time. I use maps from http://www.malsingmaps.com/portal/ and i brought my GPS module from a guy call Kemen. Try search him in Lelong.com.my. Nice person. Software from Garmin MapSource. You can have detailed guide from sifu in aboved web.

About the jagged edge for USB input, I already change it with new plate. I know its ugly but it for experimentation during my early attempt. No pain no gain.

supasigma · 08-28-2007, 01:45 PM

cool!with the GEEK u should be easy to spot!!

jacksonloh0 · 08-29-2007, 02:03 AM

Find my car already? Hint: Near Hilton area. If found, take picture and I will but you teh tarik. :-P
