Would 4 Alkaline AA's power an Intec Screen?

No. Not if you don't remove the regulators.

I suppose it COULD without the regulators, but Alkalines have a steeper (Grammar?) discharge curve than other kinds, so you'd have to be willing to put a range of voltages in an unregulated system. About 6-4V (Mind you they're probably harmless)

I wouldn't, but it's your decision. 6 volts sounds a bit risky.

its really not the screen that will fry if you put to much voltage in it. it is the amp. and it has a 7808 in it so why would 6 volts fry it anyway?

I'm not saying it will, but I'm saying you'd need to remove the regulators in order for it to have a working input of 6V.

But I'm dumb, listen to Turbo instead.

So WOULD it work?

So 4 AA alkalines will not work, so would a 7.2 volt battery pack with about 3000 mA/h power it wtihout frying it?

With the regulators on, that should be 100% fine.

yeah it would. G-force ran his off 4 AA Ni-Mhs alkalines would work fine
a 7.2 volt battery would work a little better though and give you more life

they are the same arent they. except it has different looking pots on the front

As Turbo mentioned the adjust boards are slightly diffrent, and the controller board is also slightly diffrent. It has a single row of pins (which have yet to be deciphered), unlike the hip gear which has two rows of pins.

Alas, my NESp has hope! Expect to see something sexy...soon.
