The purpose of this post (like most of mine) is to take my notes out of evernote and make them available. The goal for this post was really just a quick way to get Kismet up and running and then viewing the output quickly.
LadyAda sells a pretty neat kit to allow you to give your USB gadgets power from 2 AA batteries. To create the “Boost” (save for batteries) The capacitors, IC Socket, schottky diode, etc.. took roughly 10 minutes to solder onto the PCB using these instructions, and another 15 minutes and 2 Altoids gum tins to give it the “Minty” part. Note: I spent the better part of 2 days locating these gum tins in the midwest. Eventually I found them at CVS of all places.

I used it as my template throughout the entire process.
