Nope.. not "shopped".. that's a real pic and yes, it does currently work. It's ugly inside though and I want to make a lot of changes.
When I first tested the charge circuit I was getting 5.7VAC RMS at about 185mA. That was loaded. Retesting and some minor coil alignment got me to about 6.5VAC and about 200mA... which is plenty for running the USB charge control board.
