Wiring A 3.5Mm Headphone Jack To The Ez-B

Hello!

I decided that for my robot Dewy, I wanted to give him some more volume, as the tiny stock ez-b speaker is almost silent in the body.

To do this, I would like to wire a headphone jack to the ez-bs non-amplified port and then run a wired speaker to that port(Keeping in mind that the new speaker will be powered separately).

Looking at Dave's tutorial he doesn't really show how the headphone jack is attached to the strip board(no diagrams or explanation from what I see), and so i'm asking for your help.

I've found some info regarding 3.5mm jacks:

Good job Tech. It turned out well... I think I am going to do the same to one of my ezb boards as well.

@Tech... No need.... Your thread is actually a good tutorial... Dave's thread is too long for me to follow LOL....

Doesn't seem like a tutorial to me... How about I make a tutorial video?

That would be great... Too bad we don't have a section here to "pin" frequently asked questions or tutorials so they are much easier to find....
