One neat thing about it is that it ran off of 12 Vdc.  I had a small (5in) B&W monitor that also ran off of 12 Vdc.  We set it up at a hamfest running off of a car battery.  This was the early 80's and some folks were really impressed that we had a computer that ran off of a battery.

We had to push start the car at the end of the day.  ;-)

I had a timex sinclair 1000. I bought  a keyboard case for it      from jameco electronics,  stacked ram  and solder all the pins      except the select pins and had 64k,  cut out the video driver for      tv and connected it directly to an amber monitor. I still have it      and it works

I don't remember what happened to mine. I know I had the        cables that allowed me to store programs on a regular cassette        player. I wrote some very rudimentary course plotting programs        in basic, that included the ability to add waypoints.

I still have mine.  Somewhere.  In a              box.  I had the 32K memory expansion module.
