Ps2 laptop...yes i know another one

[Takoon4]

ok now how do i connect the PCB to the battery and the charger
how do you put it all together ?

Follow the diagram in my guide

[Takoon4]

how do i hook the PCB to the batterys ?
i see the spaces but im sorry i just dont get it...

[Takoon4]

but..if you solder it how do you hook it back up to the ps2 and monitor @.@ ?

[hailrazer]

See that + and - area that says charge and load ?

The charger _ and - hook up there and the Ps2 and monitor + and - hook up there.

Well technically the PS2 and monitor hook up to the voltage regulators and then the voltage regulators hook up there.

[Takoon4]

oh ok
what watt should i use for the batteries when soldering ?
and i thought i only needed the voltage regulator for the ps2 to run through.

[hailrazer]

Well the screen runs at a max of 8.0v I think, so you need to lower your volts for it also.

What watts for a soldering iron. I'm not sure as I have a soldering station with variable temperature settings. I guess a 25 watt or 40 watt would be fine.

@raizer04 -- Yea the voltage regulator is taking the power from the batteries (pcb) and converting it to what you need and then going to the screen and PS2. But you need your switch in there somewhere.

[hailrazer]

You mean another switch besides the gray one (upper right hand corner) within the pic i posted? And if so where?

No my bad. Put the regulator after the battery Pcb but before the switch. Then the switch power goes to the Ps2/screen.

Hmm...ok, which spot on the switch would the voltage regulator + and - be connected to?

(LEARNING SO MUCH NOW!!)

Same spots the battery pcb + and - went to. Just put the regulator between the Pcb and the switch.

[hailrazer]

Yea but remember the regulator has a ground to.

[Takoon4]

ok i have been begging to ask this what is ground >_< ?
and im using a 15 inch LCD monitor that runs off of 12v...
and pics are fine there are so helpful

[hailrazer]

In our case ground is the negative side of the battery.

[Takoon4]

so for the lcd monitor what should i do since it runs at 12v ?

depends. changing voltage is easy. but i think limpport was selling a screen that would be good for this. course, it depends how big you want it to be.

[Takoon4]

i would perfer a 15-16" w/ speakers
but i can do without the speakers
