Topic: Chumby guts missing line-out?

I just got my chumby guts from the makershed store. All versions of the regular Chumby have internal speakers AND a line out. The guts kit appears to have just speakers but no line out. Is this correct? The line-out is a big part of the project I was going to use the kit for.

How different is the power to the internal speakers compared to the line-out? If they are close to the same, I guess I can just cut the speaker wires and connect them to a set of female RCA connectors.

Thanks!

Re: Chumby guts missing line-out?

The electronics you have in the Chumby Guts kit are identical to the electronics in the standard 3.8 Ironforge chumby.

The daughtercard (the one with the speakers connected to it) should have a stereo headphone jack on the opposite side from the power connector - the same as the normal unit.

Found the connector. Just wasn't expecting it to be on the backside of the card. Would also have helped taking the card out of its bag. My bad. Thanks for the help!
