Cleaning out our storageroom, my partner found an old non-functional bluetooth speaker ready to be thrown out. Luckily I stepped in and saved it from its doom.
All that was borked was it's battery, and I still had one of those lying around. So in a jiffy the Speaker was fixed, no excuse to throw it out, and no excuse to use it as we already have 2 great bluetooth speakers. My partner was still not convinced it was not trash, so I had to make it into a project. The best worst thing I could imangine at the time was an internet radio that allowed a connection to only a single internet radio station, thus defeating the whole point of internet, and creating a "great" piece of Internet of Things hardware. A single Station internet radio player - what a time to be alive.
I started reverse engineer the PCB, and failed miserably, even destroying the PCB in the process. So I just threw in an esp32 wrote some code and flashed it. It works, but the quality is not that good. I also wanted to do a freewire or dead-bug or whatever you call that style, but that also failed. It was fun, but I'm glad it's done. Now it's basicaly just trash again...
