Bluetooth Speaker Kit Instructions V.1

Start by gluing each speaker (b) to the frame. You will only need a little glue along the edge of each speaker. We provide super glue, but you can use a hot glue gun inside as well.

Insert the On/Off switch into the cutout that fits. If you need glue, apply a small amount on edge, but be careful not to freeze the switch permanently in one position.

Switchshouldfitsnuglywithoutglue


Be sure to snug micro USB port as close to edge as possible – if set too deep it will be difficult to plug in micro USB cable for charging.

Start Soldering

Solder two red wires to each switch pin. You can cover the pins with heat shrink to protect the circuits from each other.


Twist together 3 black wires. Solder these wires to the black battery wires.

Solder 1 red wire coming from the switch to a red LiPo battery wire. Cover these wires with heat shrink.


Glue box side with switch to box side with charging module. The Micro USB port should line up with the small cut out. Solder red wire from switch that is on the same side as the red battery wire to the Charging module labeled BAT+.

BAT +

Solder 1 black wire from battery to the Charging module labeled BAT-. Note: slide heat shrink on battery wire before soldering so you can shrink over joint.

BAT -


Solder 1 red switch wire (from other pin) to the bluetooth adapter as shown.

Insert audio cable into jack on bluetoothadapter (green). Cut the audio cable to expose 3 wires (red, blue, yellow) which you will solder to the red amplifier board.


Solder a 2nd black wire from the battery to the bluetooth adapter as shown.

Solder the wires from the audio cable to the amplifier.


Solder remaining red switch wire and remaining black battery wire to the amplifier board.

GND: black wire+5: red wire

Solder 1 blue and 1 white wire to each of the speaker terminals. Positive and Negative terminals just need to be consistent with your colors and the location on the amplifier.

+: blue-: white


Solder the speaker wires to amplifier as outlined. Fitting all the wires from the audio cable, battery and speakers gets very tight and requires a lot of patience!

Now that your circuit is complete, test that it works (turn it on) and that it will pair with your playing device. If you hear some static, check your solder connections and charge your battery.

Once everything is working, gently stuff into the box. If you feel confident about your connections, glue the box closed!

V.2


Be sure to snug micro USB port as close to edge as possible – if set too deep it will be difficult to plug in micro USB cable for charging.

Start Connecting WiresStrip wires so they can be easily twisted together and secured to components. Eventually, solder all wire connections.


Twist 1 of the available red wires to the red battery wire and 1 of the available black wires to the black battery wire.

Attach the twisted battery wires to the battery charging module. Black wires connect to the BAT- terminal, Red wires connect to the BAT+ terminal.

BAT+ BAT-


Attach Red wire from the battery module to one Switch terminal. Attach a 2nd Red wire to the open Switch terminal. The switch should already be inserted into the box.

Attach the free Red wire from the switch to the IN+ terminal of the Booster. Attached 1 Black wire from the battery module to the IN- terminal of the Booster.


Attach a Red wire to the 5V terminal on the Booster. Attach a Black wire to the GND terminal on the Booster.

Attach the Red and Black wires from the Booster to the Bluetooth board. Black wire to the GND terminal, Red wire to the +5V terminal.


Attach the JST cable to the Bluetooth board. The 4 JST wires will connect to the speakers.

Attach the JST cable wires to the Speakers. Positive and Negative are not critical on these speakers.
