Version 2.0 of the Scrobble Box is actually in a box. The box is a shell that my wife had lying around from another project, and the Pi Pico W is mounted inside on a knock-off Pop Socket with double stick tape. I mounted a battery pack I scavenged from a Circuit Playground Express kit to the bottom of the case so that the cover holding the batteries can still slide off. I cut off the connector end of the wires and soldered them to the Pi Pico W. I also soldered in the light switch. Now I have a fully wireless scrobbling switch in a box!
