I like this idea a lot. Anyone care to share their experiences or thoughts on it?

I have a lot of questions:
-
anyone know of a schematic?
-
baring that, what is their battery charger IC? I want to know what the max charging current is as 85 mAh is pretty pitiful for the application I’m thinking of.
-
also, does the film run while charging (I assume yes but it doesn’t hurt to ask).
-
is there a source for the 20 pin connector? I’d like to make a frame (aka shield) that it plugs into.
it looks like the flex bus doesn’t have VBat on it so battery monitoring will have to be a kludge.
Overall, it looks pretty useful for some wearable projects I have.
