Ok you'll have to put power from the battery to the screen and console. And it cant be like the console and then off the console to the screenn (or vice versa). On the Hip Screen you need to connect the input voltage to the output voltage pin of the 7808 on the control board, the SNES you connect the positive to the input voltage pin. As for the ground connect that to the center pin (its always the center pin). That should get the power going.

Enjoy.

no you can have a built in charger just use a DPDT switch like this

First thing first. The SNES has a 7805 on the board, use that. The Hip Screen also has a 7808 on the control board, use that. Now follow the instruction I gave in the first post I made here and it will work.

You cant use a single 7805 as they dont usually aloue enough currect to go through to power that much.

Use the hardware you have and you'll be fine. Also to be sure the batteries your using are rated at 7.2v, right?

I have one of those batteries also, It should work great for you. I thought that was a monster battery when i first saw it.
Beware, do not even touch the two connections together for 2 seconds with an alligator clip by mistake. I did it, and It burned severly in 2 seconds. It really packs a punch, and lasts long.

good luck!
