although theres still a little info left, i have ben searching but could of swore i saw more on diy t4bs before
theres a couple links:
http://www.recording.org/users/kev/T4B.htm

http://www.vacuumbrain.com/docs/t5.html

both seem to be down, in fact cj's crashes firefox and is broken in IE.
any meta info on this as suggested on the diyfactory site is also gone or not accesible here.
anyone fill in the blanks for me?

i had assumed previously that i could DIY something in the same ballpark with relatively easy to get parts.
now i cant even find a clear pinout! :'(
 
Still want to try and see if I can get the EL panel material you can get from Conrad electronics to light up and couple that to a couple of LDRs.
It's somewhere on the extensive list though, too many projects.

LA2A META. It's all still there.

http://www.groupdiy.com/index.php?topic=21908

but looks like drip removed some of his findings in his original t4b cloning thread. Understandable, since he is selling the things as a business now.

you can still piece together all the info needed to roll your own t4b, just takes a bit of detective work.


additional info in the massive "All things LA2a related" thread

http://www.groupdiy.com/index.php?topic=3278
 
cheers,
in the META been through the entire first thread and the second IS still down... does it work for you then? maybe i'm missing some secret there???

the majority is drip related and anything of value/importance has been removed or too old and inaccesible.
theres a couple of refs to a project CJ finished but they are down too.

anyone have this stuff or remember it well?
 
Oh sorry, yes it looks many of those links are duds.

I found this T4 drawing somewhere. It's the only thing I have on the internals. Looks like I didn't back up much of the stuff I've read about T4B's either.

thanks very much, i have messaged back, look forward to going over what you have :)

thats a unique site idea gyraf, i'll check that out too cheers :)
 
I also have both pages as pdf

Got a PCB design as well

Also got a schematic for a vactrol mod.

As soon as I find something I like I save it immediately cause all to often things get deleted from the net.

Should I upload it here? Or maybe send it to the Gmail account?

I don't want to violate anybody, meaning if these files were removed for a reason I don't wanna piss anybody off
