So I've been browsing this forum for just over a week now, doing a hell of a lot of reading, and learning a ton.
After securing myself a spare wii console off ebay for the bargain price of £1! I'm in the process of gathering parts I need for a portable wii project.
Originally the idea came to me after I removed a car dvd player with a 9 inch screen. It had AV input, and looked perfect... Until I wired up everything to test it, and realised I couldn't switch to AV input without a remote (which I didn't have)
So now I'm after a new screen with a compatable AV board.
I found this on ebay: https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https://www.ebay.co.uk/ulk/itm/292630726885
It looks promising, not a bad price and the AV board is nice and tiny.
I've already done the whole portablizemii shtick, and removed everything I won't need from the board.
I've also got myself a set of 4x18650's with holders.
I plan to eventually trim the board and run it on batteries as 2s2p, which will give me 7.4v and some decent running time (in theory).
In terms of regulators, I would love to get the PMS and be done with it, but Ideally I wanna spend as little as possible (for this version anyway) but could anyone suggest any other regulator solutions? Ideally I'd like play and charge too. Links would be appreciated.
Before I even think about anything else, like controls, casing, I wanna use on this project, I think I need to sort these basic requirements first and get the thing functioning untethered.
