The latest find was from my trip to Anchor Electronics to get the GPS receivers (a separate post once I test them out), and I found this battery pack labeled for iPhone 3G & 3GS which has the 30 pin that works on iPods! Once I found the right powered charger and charged up the battery it works great with my classic iPods.

For my second entry in #marchintosh is this #spicyPillow in a 2012 Mac Pro. IIRC I picked this up at #EFM #electronicsFleaMarket on the cheap, fully intended for a project but was packed up from the move. Unpacked the box this weekend, and noted the lid being pushed out – and upon opening noted the touchpad broken in half.

I opened it up & pulled out the spicy pillow, installing a spare battery I had on hand. Connected power, and it booted! The touchpad works, but to click/double click you have to push down to make the touchpad level while clicking/double clicking. Time to find a replacement touchpad, and when I do then also max out the RAM while installing an SSD.

For my first entry in #marchintosh I will post some pictures testing the Apple DVI to ADC adapters on the workbench.

Yep, they all worked!

Well what do you know – The Electronics Flea Market (EFM) has moved back to Saturday mornings and if you park in lot 2 it is free. Looks as we get to share the campus with the farmer’s market, so I get to peruse fruit & veg for the week and get my nerd on. Hopefully I will find another security appliance from a vendor I do not have yet for my test rack in the garage.

The first date is Saturday March 14, 2026 at West Valley College in Saratoga, CA (south bay area): http://www.electronicsfleamarket.com/

See you there!

FYSA The next Electronics Flea Market (#EFM) on Sunday Sep 14, 2025 at West Valley College - which will be the last one for #2025

For details see https://www.electronicsfleamarket.com/

IMHO and from my experiences normally the last one for the year is the better ones for selling/attending.

One of my great EFM scores last month is this soutra XL #iPod dock. Solar panel to charge the internal battery and the iPod itself, the speakers are ok though I wish there was more bass. Still has the #apple property tag on it, missing the cover for the dock though. Works well, likely one of the better #EFM finds for me.

Listening to the communion after dark #podcast, enjoying a new to me #coffee at the beginning of this long weekend #prounion #laborday
