[FS/IC] Pre-made, $10-20 converters "Zebraverters"

[kelvinhall05]

Hi guys, recently I built two converters (one for a Wyse PCE, the other for an M0116) using a Pro Micro and firmware from Soarer and TMK, respectively. I think they turned out pretty well and posted them on DT Discord and a few people said they might be interested in some, so I figured I would fun an interest check and maybe build a few (only like half a dozen unless people REALLY want it).

Some external pictures of both and an internal pic of the M0116 here: https://imgur.com/a/fm4dkoz

I used all recycled parts with the exception of the Pro Micros and wire, so these were super cheap, but I could make these for $10-20 depending on how much I want to profit and where I buy Pro Micros and sockets from ($12 each from Amazon, less than half from China, and the sockets I can probably get for less than a dollar each from a local electronics store).

I have dubbed these "Zebraverters" for the tape I used to wrap them in. Let me know what you guys think and if you'd be interested in one.

Hope this gets attention, definitely interested in a soarers alternative

YEP! But I don't really have a need for those boards. But hell yeah dude. I'll pay $25 for some stuff I would love to convert.

Oh, neat! May be interested one to use with my M0115.

Haha maybe I should've made it more clear; if I can use existing firmware on a Pro Micro and can find a female socket, I will make a converter for that board.

Hell, I still need to make myself an XT one but used up all my Pro Micros and need to find a female din socket

That reminds me I need one for an AT...

For AT stuff, I recommend you just use a simple PS/2 to USB adapter.

I need an xt one for my Zenith Z150 (black badge), finding a converter for a decent price has been a bit of a headache since the typical xt converter doesn't usually work properly, though yeah this looks like an interesting alternative, going to keep my eyes peeled on this one.

They're pretty much bto. I don't have enough spare time or demand to have completed ones available whenever.

Oh I totally understand that, doesn't mean I can't dream of someone making one
