this is what I started with. it's a different model/voltage, and he uses a 6v DC power adapter, to match it up for his 6v model..
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Jc9dy3
I wired my trashcan to be USB powered, since using a voltmeter showed that my can required 1.5v in... I think this one runs at 6v like the video, so ymmv:
So... I've got USB connectors [amazon.com] and a USB male to USB male cable sitting around, which would be step 1. I bought a variety pack [amazon.com] for building other things. It came with Micro, which would make a little more sense for most people without a male to male cable on hand.
You just need to find the USB pinout for 5v+ and ground. Those get soldered to a buck converter [amazon.com] (mine came pre-labeled + and - on the underside), which will accept incoming voltage, and adjusts down via a Philips screw on the converters PCB. If you spring for the extra big ones [amazon.com], they have a little LCD screen on them that tells you the output voltage.
I soldered the output wires to the backside of the battery terminals. This allowed me to keep the PCB out of the way, and when I melted the window in the battery door, it sunk in the USB connector so it's actually out of the way of the batteries. I could unplug the USB from the back and run on batteries without any adjustments.
Then, lovely people comment on the fact that standard bags are actually 13 gallon, pointing out that the $35 deal is better, WITH a $1 filler, saving me from having to run another errand.
Thank you everyone!!

Take it from someone who dealt with an offbrand auto trash can for 2 years - it's not worth it. You will never want to replace your garbage can, but when you finally get rid of it you will feel a weight off your shoulders.
I would honestly rather either shell out for a proper one like simplehuman or just keep running a non-covered one until a deal on a proper one comes up.
