Here is a sneak peak, my version 0.6 design which I have changed a lot around and I'm really happy with the new power switch design - it works perfectly with the Lego mechanism

Palette Cleanser is finally off to production after some last minute tweaks! (Composite captured via RT5X with contrast set to -20. Probably would have been a closer brightness match at -15 to -17...but whatever)

There will be continuous batch re-stocks of RetroTap, with no plans to stop production. This is not a limited one time release. I have a healthy stock of DC power cables, I do not expect to sell out of those. /3

While I'm waiting on Palette Cleanser feedback, I whipped up this power board for 5V AES systems. Designed to sit where the big fat cap goes (2200uF on 3-5 etc, 1000u on the early units). I will probably put a 2P JST connector for the 9V input to make it a little cleaner/easier

Neptune revision 1.4 has just been released, including the "region flicker" fix and some BOM updates/corrections. This one was a real team effort, so thanks to all who contributed! github.com/Board-Folk/N...

github.com

Release r1.4 · Board-Folk/Neptune

Fix for the "region flicker" issue due to region/version register instability (issue #3, dr-goobur) BOM correction: C12 and C14 were listed as 1uF, should be 1nF. This avoids some edge case issues ...
