Oh boi..
Aurelio was right (as always)... LEDs suck. I spend hours this day to install 3 LEDs in the case. [And fix VGA cause i always mix up the colors, even if i know that the colors on the pics don't match to RGB... <.<'']
Was it worth it?.. decide yourself:
Talking of sadly: I have to...
Poor Man's Devkit:
Also I've found one of my first diy hardware mods ever! The NoldCard eXtreme SD! (eXtreme stands for "extra extremely bad soldered" - lol)...
Living close to the egde! ;-) But lookin good!

Thanks a lot!
Hi guys,
since a lot of new ppl try trimming wiis, i was thinking about collection some common questions & data. So i've started writing down my latest voltage resistances.
I hope some of you could add some more with different trims & revisions!
It's an OpenDocument Sheet, but Excel can just...
Today finally every worked out as planed...
First i bought myself some custom made, ESD-Safe socks:
Now i felt confident, that if this trim dies, i couldn't blame ESD any longer..
So i started of by removing the LDO & some other useless stuff from the board.. then i trimmed & sanded the shit...
Yea.. I'm Mr. Robot!
Man, i'm having a hard time on this project... today i removed everything from the board, resanded, cleaned, changed, eliminating as many variables as possible. But nothing helped, USB simply seems to be broken - as i know everything else is working, i believe because of...
Oh boi.. this is one of those project where you think: "that's cool and is actually quite simple!" but turns out to be more complex than you expect :mrgreen:
the last days were tuff.. two days ago i spend the whole evening cleaning/maintaining/calibrating my 3d printer, since i just couldn't...
... well.. is would have all the needed watercooling parts lying around.. so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Apart from that i got not much interesting stuff to tell you. Except that fusion still sucks and killed yet another two days of work... so i'll switch to inventor or solidworks for the next project. The CAD...
Hi guys,
as some might have noticed: i'm currently working on a project, i don't want to become public right now. Even if it's nothing big.. literally.
The project will be reviled when I made it to the MGC this year :)
I still can't believe that i get this possibility, i'm so exited to meet...
It's me again - after many many years i finally updated my mini drawers! Many portable related parts, Wii/PS2/N64-Parts, one of them is actually full of wifi & BT boards >.<
until today i stored a lot of parts in them for building radio transmitters & amplifiers when i was like.. 17.. so i...
Nice work, I love it! Guess i had already built one by myself if the SNES Jr. wasn't so rare :(
I still have a retro-bit rdp snes portable, but it sucks.. it's bulky, everything just feels bad & the screen sucks, too. So maybe I'll take that appart one day & see if i can connect another screen...
Also..
You should cut away that crack on the top, otherwise you'll not be able to fully sand the edges of the trim.
Also remove the rest of that connector on the bottom. (or any other component you might did cut through
After doing what ginger said, check for resistance/shorts between every voltage line & gnd. Also you might want to cleanup your soldering joints of the voltage lines. Bad/cold solder joints have a higher resistance & may cause problems, too.
