About that wire .....
thinner and better insulated would be a great choice for a power source because of less resistance and it's easier to bend and solder it to stuff. I used Ide wire it works great on mine.


If you check out mine you will clearly see wires coming from the n64 to the psone screen ...

Ok, as you know how I setup my portable from the previous post I would like to know should I get a 7.2 volt or 8.4 volt battery pack?

I ask this because I fear that the 8.4 volt when full charged will go over 9v

I ask this because I fear that the 7.2 volt will drop below 7v when half way through ...

Pay five bucks like I did and get the bits on ebay It's so worth the money I promise.(Try to dig out the plastic with a knife while slowly melting it with a soldering iron. It worked for me)
