Re: Noob question - powering PSone screen
Ok, it took me a while to find the time to do this but I rewired the the power to my screen, and taking care NOT to reverse the polarity it still seems to power on as before (i.e. can see that the screen goes black, like it's on) :) So, I've then tried to connect a signal (direct from my NES) but th...

Re: Psone Screen Short Circuit
Hey, I've been having the same problem over in this thread:

It shows you which fuse to bridge, which might get your screen working again... maybe?

Re: Noob question - powering PSone screen
K, thanks for these tips :) I bridged the fuse as per Hail's suggestion and the screen worked! Sort of! As in, I plugged in power (with no video input attached) and I could see the screen boot up and go darker. Result! Then, I tried powering it off of the battery I'm hoping to use (pretty much one o...

Re: Noob question - powering PSone screen
Ok, so I've opened it up and tried wiring the power straight in (using the built in socket and powered through an AC adaptor). Would really appreciate anyone's thoughts - do you think the screen is dead? I'm getting pretty lonely in this thread

Re: Noob question - powering PSone screen
K, I've tried a 7.5v and no dice so I guess I've got to get the guts out and see what might be up. Any suggestions? At all?!

Noob question - powering PSone screen
I just want to test the screen I have but I don't have the original power cable. I tried using a multi-voltage adaptor at 6v and 9v (I know the screen is 7.5v) but the screen wouldn't power on? Wonder if it's knackered as I bought it off ebay a couple of months ago and have only now got round to sta...

Lots of useful battery information - follow the link
Batteries, what to choose and how to use them safely are the questions I'm asking most whilst contemplating my first portable.

Re: Can Super Famicom Junior be made compatible with Pal carts?
Thanks Nod :) Maybe I will give the Pal version a go after all - I just wanted to make it as small as possible! I've also noticed the Yobo Dual FC console since posting but probably using a conventional system is probably gonna be easier seeing as I have a LOT to learn. Thanks for the link too - wil...

Can Super Famicom Junior be made compatible with Pal carts?
Hi all, This is my first post having been lurking around for a couple of days. I came here having been blown away by a NESp on instructables and having come here realised how much scope there is to make incredible portable consoles. I am 100% going to have a go myself and would love to try a SNESp. ...
