I tried flipping the USB-C cable while trying to connect to a PC as Gman suggested in the PM, nada. I also tried giving the board 5V through the USB with my with my lab bench supply and still no continuity on the data lines. I went back to trying to connect to a PC while flipping the cable and I...

Those stock photos are the same ones the sellers are using. And my fake cells are in my lawn mower battery (they are visible in the picture of the fuses). So I can't really get any better pictures or weights on them. I used them in the lawn mower battery because they match my existing cells...

No continuity on the data lines through the USB port. I don't know if this is by design or not.

The best way tell if a cell is genuine is to test the capacity of the cell. I use both a LiitoKala Lii-500 and an IMAX B6 RC Charger. And I tested at both 1Amp and 0.5Amp draw rates on both battery charger/testers and got similar results. The 12 fakes I have were purchased in lots of 4 from 3...

For the LOLs here's my new lawn mower battery. It's a 13s9p pack around 20Ah storing just under 1 kilowatt of power! I could have got away with a pack 1/4 the size but I overestimated my power draw. I used 1/4 watt resistor legs to attach the cells to the bus bars. Not all 1/4 resistor legs are...

Started building my G-BOY. Apparently PortablizeMii is very picky about the file system. After trying every combination of SD/microSD card and USB drive I own (formated FAT32 32 kilobyte clusters) I ordered a 16GB SD card and 16GB USB drive and those are now working. I haven't looked into the...

Thanks

I'm starting the assembly and my 3d printed power button is missing. Who do I need to contact for missing pieces?

I just re-rebuilt my lawn mower battery pack. So I tested all the 18650 cells in my house. I found that I had bought 12 fake Panasonic NCR18650B 3400mAh cells. I wanted to share this information with the forum. The genuine cells are button top and the outer most wrapper is clear (usually priced...

Two steps forward and one step back. I've done some case work and built the heatsink. My I/O daughter board was originally attached to the heatsink. I decided I didn't like this because the giant cable attaching it to the main board was cumbersome and if it wasn't folded correctly every time it...

On the back there's a row of buttons above the VGA port. Those buttons are for the on screen display. The large button to the side turns the screen on and off (There's also the power led for the screen above that). When running both the internal screen and the VGA out the picture dims on both...

VGA and Composite Out. Line Level Audio and a switched Headphone Out.

That's epic! I did PCB etching in a shop class in middle school and it turned out badly. It's so cool to get such good results at home.

The boards are basically done. I've gone overboard on features. I've got all the A/V in and outs as well as 4 controller ports. The the biggest pain in the ass was the little limit switch on the Player 1 port that will disconnect the internal controller when an external is plugged in. Also...

I REALLY dig your hand etched controller PCB!

Nope, no trim. I've got more space than I know what to do with with this big ass screen.

I've been sitting on the mountain of parts to build this portable since late 2018. Although I'm still waiting on the 64drive I ordered for it in July 2018. With or without it the virus has given me the time and motivation to make some progress on this project. I probably would have tried this in...

This thing is epic. I've been considering trying a Wii portable for a while and this does all the work for me. When will these be off pre-order? Im curious because I ordered one and would like an ETA. (I've had 2 64drives on order from Marshall since July 2018 and they haven't arrived yet. So...

Oops. Well I haven't been around in a while and got excited when I saw it.
