I’d like to mount the brewpi touchscreen on my refrigerator, but the whole brewpi itself is a bit bulky to have sticking out with wires etc. so I’m hoping someone is able to help with the below questions.
Does anyone know what I would need by way of wire to connect the touchscreen to the brew at a distance of say six inches? Even three would be enough.
Does anyone have any recommendations on mounting hardware for the screen itself?
The touch screen connector is 14 pins on one side and 4 on the other. Not all pins are essential, but it is a lot of wires.
The touch screen also has 14mm pins soldered too it.
I think an easier approach would be to connect a screen to the raspberry pi and display a custom web interface on it. Then you can just use a standard cable.
Or even simpler: an old phone, connecting to the pi over WiFi.
