    Okay very dead thread, but it has a lot to do with what I'm working on now. So here we go.
    I have just recieved a new graflex (#2) and I want to go easy with this one. So my plan was to gut the MR Anikin that I have and put all the electronics and battery pack in the hilt of my new graflex. One issue I see atm is wiring in a momentary switch to the MR board. With out changing the existing BP that is in the MR set up, I'm looking for a way to keep the plastic coverings, battery set up and speaker from the MR. According to the wiring diagram at the begining of this thread I should be able to do that.
    If the ground from the board can be used, on the pololu board could I make a "splice" or a jumper back to the battery?
    Maybe I didn't get the Q out clear.

    Yes, you can splice a ground from the MR board to the Pololu and it'll work just fine. I usually just add another wire to the board negative and run that to the ground on the Pololu and it works just fine.

    Got a question? Start Here. Have you tried the Thread Index yet? Most questions can be answered there.

    Cool. I figured as much. Confirmation is always good.

    On the Pololu board, can I use the following switch with it?

    If it's a momentary switch then you can use it.

    can someone please help I'm using the buckpuck wiring diagram (no sound) but my board is always on. i saw this can happen by incorrectly wiring to a sound card but has this happened to anyone without one?

    Pololu boards can be finicky. Does it turn on but not off?

    Check to see if power is shorted back to battery positive.
