11:14 sashimi hello all
14:12 jnettlet Humpelstilzchen, so you have gps connectivity and you move the gps closer to the HB and then it loses connection with the satellites, and then you move it further away and they reconnect?
14:13 jnettlet heap_, some usb battery charger packs support a pass-through circuit. These could work as a small cheap UPS.
14:13 jnettlet but you need to make sure that it supports power pass-through or else the battery will be dead in no time.
14:19 heap_ thanks
14:21 heap_ any tips for brands?
14:21 heap_ capacity
14:22 jnettlet I would think a minimum of 10000mAh's. It depends how long you need to run on battery.
14:22 heap_ max 5-10min
14:22 heap_ one cubox, 2 rapbs
14:22 heap_ rpi2
14:24 jnettlet depends a lot on workload and such. I know on the new mx6 based HB at idle I use about 15mAh per minute.
14:24 jnettlet I haven't measured the the original Cubox in a while.
14:35 humpelstilzchen jnettlet: yes, also it reconnects when I turn the hb off
14:37 jnettlet this is on a mobile phone or a standalone GPS?
14:38 humpelstilzchen jnettlet: tested with two different standalone ones
14:39 jnettlet Humpelstilzchen, have you disabled wifi/bluetooth on the HB to see if it makes a difference.
14:39 humpelstilzchen jnettlet: yes, no change
14:40 jnettlet so you just have a HB powered on and not doing anything and it disrupts a standalone GPS at 50cms?
14:40 humpelstilzchen yes
14:42 jnettlet there has to be something else going on. To jam GPS you need about .5W on the specific frequency, there are 5 bands between 1-2Ghz
14:42 humpelstilzchen hmm
14:42 humpelstilzchen sry afk
14:43 jnettlet np
14:57 zaitzev_ Is there a way to have the CEC adapter NOT hijack the TV remote Source button? I can't switch sources on the TV while the Cubox is powered on (CEC Adapter enabled) :P
