Librem 5 Europe Battery Party

Hardware Librem 5
1

I got over the ocean with 5 batteries for my Librem 5. They are battle hardened and not in the best condition. But it seems like I only really need 3 or 4 and probably not 5. Would anybody want to have a social meetup party somewhere in Europe where I give away one or two to folks who seem like they’ll put them to good use?

I’m not very familiar with Europe so I don’t know good social meeting places where we could remain anonymous. But I have the weekends off from work so its conceivable I could fly somewhere. I’ll be coming and going in a manner such that I’ll be on this continent for a while now. Curious what people think. I speak only English and I had a Spanish class 8 or 10 years ago.

♫ My battery lies over the ocean,
my battery lies over the sea,
my battery lies over the ocean,
oh bring back bring back,
bring back my battery to me, to me,
oh bring back, bring back,
bring back my battery to me.♫

It might be a dumb idea, but a case with integrated 10,000 mAH cell would be doable… Obviously be open source.

You could model it on the old brick cellphones:

But, in all seriousness, pinephone people constructed a battery (6000mAh) + keyboard back. But it used their pogo-pin layout. Keyboard - PINE64 . It’s a thought.

If you would be interested in coming to Warsaw next weekend I could show you a few interesting places here :slight_smile: You would need to book a hotel for yourself though.

You could almost slide a Kobalt brand lawnmower battery onto it.
