Battery Powered Timelapse Pi
From the site:
#The Purpose:
I have been looking for a good guide to build a TimelapseRPi that runs on battery and with a safe way to shut down the Pi after ‘photo session’.
I found out pretty early that just pulling battery plug from Pi when done capturing pics can very effectively brick the USBkey I’m using for storage. In order to mend this I added a Tactile button that, when pressed, initiate a clean ‘shutdown’ on my Raspberry Pi.

Magic Mirror
Being a guy while visiting a shopping city with your girlfriend may cause your mind to drift away while walking thru Macy’s. Or at least, this happened to me while i was visiting New York last january.
Long story short: while wandering around I noticed a mirror with an illuminated sing on it. This is something i could built myself. Only better. I wanted my own Magic Mirror!
