Hi mnvk52, I'm not an expert but I think that 3.4 and 2.99 are closes values, especially for lux values wich could be upper than 40000 lux with a tsl2561, and maybe this difference is true because light is changing every time. Otherwise, gain is used for have betters values for DIFFERENTS situations...

Hi, I would like to use the matrix for display time. Logically, on the 15x7 charlieWing matrice, there is a way for display 4 numbers of 3 pixels in width direction and 3 spaces between numbers. Currently size of number is too big for doing that. So, I need to change the "font" using by frambuffer. ...

Hi Smhodge, Maybe I'm wrong but the usual procedure for save data contain 3 importants parts: -You have the first one with "file = open(file-path, 'a+b')", one time. -But after you have to use "file.write(data)" each time that you write data. -and finally for save data, "file.close()", one time. So,...

Thanks Roberthh, Finally, on a fresh live-iso of parabola on a usb-stick, there isn't problem. So, the problem is only persistent on my old ditribution of parabola. On this usual installation, there isn't any new device which appear when I plug a pyboard... This is strange. An usual usb stick appear...

PERFECT.

So good.

All my respect.

Yep, Finally it's a little bit dangerous. It depends of the power of the computer which is charging. For me it's allright with a raspberry computer, but just with a laptop, battery is very hot during charging. I will try to add a voltage regulator, but maybe this will stop the charging ability??? Th...

Yop,

Ok, I understood that there isn't a way to charge a battery on pyboard (with fet diode).

No way. I have to use a specific charger like the powerboost 1000c from adafruit for doing that.

I have seen that it looks possible with the pyb-D and wbus28...
