Re: PS2p Power Help
well that all depends of course on which batteries you end up going with, but considering the voltage requirements you've already mentioned (11.1v), you might want to consider going with the PCB, corresponding batteries, and the charger linked below: http://www.batteryspace.com/pcbfor111vli-ionbatte...

Re: ~{The Kingdom PS2}~ revival thread and worklog
just tried my hand at the memory card LED mod, lol, its a completely useless light on the memory card that flashes when data is being read/written, but its one of those things where, in the grand scheme of the project, if its worth doing, its worth over doing :D http://i611.photobucket.com/albums/tt...

Re: ~{The Kingdom PS2}~ revival thread and worklog
minor update here, i just attached the A/V wires to the PS2 mobo. i know this really isnt a big deal, but i think its significant, because for the first time i feel that i did a really good job with this part, because i have come up with some really wacky ways to do this in the past, but this one is...

Re: ~{The Kingdom PS2}~ revival thread and worklog
hey everyone, just thought id post a small update on my progress with the ps2 project. i came up with a way to get rid of that annoying reset switch/power LED/lid sensor/IR receiver, and distil it down to its only really useful function, the reset switch: http://i611.photobucket.com/albums/tt196/Ang...

Re: PS2p Power Help
hmmm, well for my money i think that 7.4 volts would be rather low, but certainly 11.1 would be sufficient. and as for voltage regulators, this one is small, adjustable, and cheap: http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=230595181780&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT" onclick="window.open(this.href...

Re: PS2p Power Help
well generally speaking, if you want to charge while playing, you either need a way to double the current of the charging source on demand, so that it will divide in half (parallel circuit) and charge the batteries while powering the PS2, or, what im doing with my portable, is having both a charging...

Re: ~{The Kingdom PS2}~ revival thread and worklog

Re: PS2p Power Help
you may have an NTSC version PS2, and screen, but since you live in Australia, any games you find will most likely be PAL
