Did it hit the end twice and stopped?

If so try changing the pot value.

Yep. Exactly. PM'd for details

More battery questions, YAY
Anyway, will this charger work for these batteries? And yes I know I'll need a PCB aswell

Looking good so far sir, i hope you get that DD fixed soon
I like how you incorporated the gamecube jewel into the case.

Yeah, those batteries will work.

That's great! thanks.

I thought it was pretty cool when that idea came across me.

Is there a guide somewhere on these forums or modretro that shows how to do AV out?
I have the potion of using the GC AV cable or a standard cable outputs.

(from Kasar)

Yeah, I've seen that before(and bookmarked it )

But what rating of potentiometer would I use? I'm going to buy it from amazon.com, so just make sure that it's on there.
They range anyway from 5K to 500K so I'm confused about which to use.


EDIT: I just bought a low voltage detector from Ebay It cost me 50 cents! plus 3.00 shipping, so if it doesn't work then its not a big loss.
To be specific, It has 6 LED's(I'll take out all but 2) that tell when the voltage goes below a certain level. 3 LED's are green and 3 are red.
It also has a buzzer. but that would just be irritating so I won't use that.

Another question:
Can I use this protection PCB

with this battery?
http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=400152815512&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT

yes. I'd be weary of that battery though. Batteries on ebay tend to be grossly exaggerated regarding amperage.

Also... it's blue.

Thank you. I noticed it's blue
I decided to take the risk so if it works it works.

My question still stands...
what potentiometer should i use

Update

I haven't done an update in a few days so I figured it was time.
The progress I've made isn't huge, but its enough to post about.

First off, I had some problems with the joystick, so I had to replace it. Works perfect now.

I also had Issues with the capacitors on the DD mobo not fitting into the case as a result of the mounts underneath the main motherboard. When I mounted the main motherboard, I thought it would be a good idea to leave a few millimeters of air space so air can get to other parts of the system easier. But a consequence of that was now I have extended the plastic around the sides of the system by 0.5cm. It's not a huge deal, but it does add to the width.

On a more positive note, I have made mounts for the A, B, X, Y, Z, Turbo, Start, and D-pad buttons. All made with screws for easy access if any repair work needs to be done. That doesn't mean I expect to have to repair this, It's just in case anything does go wrong.

I also replaced the plastic under the DD lid so that I could cut and shape it easily around the ABXY buttons.
Also, I will be doing bondo work soon.

Pictures!!

All completed mounts from the back


And lastly, I am amazed by how perfectly round the C-stick hole is! And that was entirely with my dremel



Next I will be making mounts for the joystick and maybe the C-stick. I've been debating whether or not to use the PSP joystick instead and paint it yellow.
On one hand the original C-stick gives a more "Gamecube" feel to the system.
On the other hand the PSP joystick is SO much smaller, it would fit very very nicely, and even give me an extra bit of room I could add in more functionality then.

Also, I plan to add in an AV out using the original GC Av cable so that this can be used as a home console as well.
If I haven't mentioned this before, I am adding in 2 controller ports, and a switch to switch between the internal controller and the P1 controller port.
For power, I will be using a rocker switch from amazon.com to give it a cleaner look. I'm not sure where I'm going to put it yet. I was thinking either the back or at the very top middle, right below the hinge.

If there's one thing I've learned from this project, It's that my dremel is my best friend in the world!!!

Comments and Crits. are welcome!

If you figure out how to use a psp stick, let us all know how you do it.

Ok, I think i know what value of potentiometer I need to use, but i just wanted to check with you guys and double check.

The standard resitor in the GC AV cable is 75Ohms.
So I looked on amazon.com and saw that all the potentiometers are (blank) K. Does this mean 'kilo'? As in I would only need a 1M potentiometer?

http://www.amazon.com/Parts-Express-1M-Ohm-Potentiometer/dp/B0002KRE0W/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1284998034&sr=8-1

A k ohm is 1000ohm's, an M is a Meg ohm, 1000 kohm's. You will definitely not need a meg ohm pot.
