Bluetooth Receiver Module

Bluetooth receiver used to pair with my SGS3, to remotely release my camera's shutter. Used a cheap audio Cicada receiver - www.amazon.com/Cicada-Sewell-Bluetooth-Music-Receiver/dp/... I removed the casing and used Wegroo's Cable Mod schematic to wire the receiver's output to a 2.5mm output - www.wegroo.com/photoirmote/cablemod/ I sealed everything up with plastic putty, and painted it black. Not the prettiest piece of work, but it has become a reliable module for remote firing. It pairs instantly and has a long battery life. Not sure of the maximum range, but it seems to be about 20-30 feet. Its helped a lot for doing 360 degree panoramas. I've probably taken around 30 panos with this module. I might try to make another neater version in the future.
