That's where you do your magic to have an integral switch extender, like the "pull" tabs on pop-up books! ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's crazy that it's so poor just shipping to the people in the next country up, it doesn't even need to fly or float. Wow, an update. So it took a little over a month to get from Saint Louis to San Fran. Is the US Postal service still using stage coaches? Anyways I'm not complaining. This is good news. It's on it's way.

Mathy Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 Hello guys Don't worry. I ordered a part for my car in the UK and I just recently found out that they didn't sent it to the Netherlands but to the USA. The seller dropped it off at Royal Mail on the 2nd, where it stayed until the 8th. The tracking App told me it had reached the country of destination. Last week I tapped the screen out of pure boredom and a new screen opened. It not only told me that my package had reached the country of destination, but added a line at the bottom: "Los Angeles, United States of America". I've already contacted Royal Mail, they will respond within three working days. That would be just before the next month begins. Sincerely Mathy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So how someone can be sure which case to order? i.e. What are the distinctive differences b/w the two versions of Syscheck? Any way do distinguish between Syschecks? @Mr Robot @tf_hh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Robot Posted August 21, 2021 Author Share Posted August 21, 2021 The 2020 sys-check uses the same PCB as the 2.2 BBU sys-check but the battery holder and side switch aren't fitted, so if your sys-check has a place on the back for a button cell battery it's the newer model. Also the square IC holder on the same line as the dip switches is flush with the edge of the board on the new one, there is a slight gap on the old one. There are other differences but without having both of them to compare you wouldn't be able to tell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Robot Posted August 21, 2021 Author Share Posted August 21, 2021 Oh I should mention that I have done the case for the sys-check 2.1 as well now. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manterola Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 Thanks @Mr Robot, so I am ordering a post 2020 version right now. It is possible to choose color? This is the Syscheck I have: Thank again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Robot Posted August 21, 2021 Author Share Posted August 21, 2021 yep, just tell me the colour you want in the order details on the checkout screen. EDIT: I see you have already ordered and didn't mention a colour, let me know if you want something custom, I'll wait to start printing until you say. You can have any colour you like. If I don't already have it, I'll order it (that will increase the time to ship). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manterola Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 (edited) Sorry, I guess I missed the place to write a comment when I was ordering. I would like the the syscheck one in solid red, and the case for midi in solid orange. Nothing too fancy ;-D Edited August 21, 2021 by manterola Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gunstar Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 (edited) On 6/10/2021 at 9:28 PM, Mr Robot said: I also finished that Ralf David EPROM burner case as well https://therobotfactory.net/shop/3d-prints/ralf-david-eprom-burner-case/ This is definitely better than the squared box of Dropcheck's design. It's funny, because I originally made my own old-school with some 1/8 or 3/16"" craft plywood sheeting I cut and glued together, then painted, etc. And when I got my 3D printer, I went to grab the STL for Dropcheck's design, and after printing it out, it looks identical to the one I made of wood! I do like yours better, but I want one in the XL case style. So I'm going to design one myself for 3D print.

manterola Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 Thanks @Mr Robot for the excellent case for the Syscheck. Now it looks and works a lot better. For example I have no problems inserting classic brown&metal carts. Totally recommended. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As @orpheuswaking said there are three versions, two standard ones and a BBU version. The standard one, if if has a space for a button battery on the back of it but there's no battery that it is a newer one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bought it this year from TFHH. Placed an order on your site today. Much appreciated. Cheers! Edited September 22, 2021 by Sugarland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
