The Schematic and the Main Concept

Intially i will share you the schematics as shown in the

picture. I apologise as first i had decided to line up the 5v suppy with the PCB but we need to use diffrerent lines as there will be electromagnetic fluctuations between the speaker an thee bluetooth reciever.

THE MAIN CONCEPT:

1.We create a mini amplifer for our speaker to have a good loud sound.

2.We add a bluetooth transrecievr to it.

3.We Give power supplies to both the transreciever and the speaker seperately.

4.We connect the speaker to the bluetooth transreciever and then play songs wirelessly!

5.To make it compact and awesome , we add a strap to attach it to our hand and enjoy it.

Happy Making !

Soldering Time!

First test it out and when it is successful we must case it.

Lets put it up in a altoids tin , here I had used a visiting card holder which makes it very compact and it looks awesome.Just add a strap and make it portable!
