That also looks like one of those USB c decoy board that can grab a given voltage. Since the charger you're using can only supply 5 volts, the decoy will only supply 5 volts no matter what its set to grab I would also shorten the exposed wire on the usb c decoy

Read the text on the charger. If it says "5v 1a" then it will never work. 4 layers wiis consume up to ten watts, while 6 layers consume even more. That charger can only supply 5 watts. Try using a different power source. A good one is the stock wii power brick. If you have the wii pcb scrap you...

What are you using to power the regs

I have a modified trim that retains the both the AV and USB ports. I've reliably booted this trim before using the same regs Im using now: 4 pth08080wah regulators. The voltages are a little off though: 1v - 0.97 1v15 - 1.13 1v8 - 1.75 3v3 - 3.22 All of these readings are on unloaded regulators...

In the end they'll be supplied from the 5v usb port of a power bank board. For testing I'm using a usb wall adapter

I cleaned up all my regs and managed to fix one of pth08080wah regs I messed up. They work now and the wii should boot after I wire it

Unfortunately while trying to get rvloader work something goofed and now my 1v15 reg is outputting 0v85 (obviously it's not booting anymore). It's a pth regs so I shouldn't ever give less than 0v9 anyways

Dude got banned lol what Didn't see that coming

So I have finally wired up all of the regulators, and the trim works! I actually wasn't sure if it would work granted it's my first trim. Before I got it to boot it wouldn't do anything besides heat up, so I checked the voltages and the 1v15 line was at 0v9. Turns out the voltage set pin of the...

Anything beyond the ps2 era consumes too much power and generates too much heat to make a practical portable.

Nice! I can't help but notice the Z button looks like pi

Yesterday I tried to boot the board using the mp1584en regs, and big suprise, it didn't boot. I went ahead and checked the voltages on each rail and sure enough the voltages were dropping more than an acceptable amount (I think the 3v3 rail was giving 2.9v). I could probably crank up the regs...

Yeah the chinesium regs are on their way out. I'll probably get a pms cause I don't want to deal with setting the voltage on pth08080s
