Thanks for the help, guys. I decided to go with a different iron. It can switch between 15w and 30w. I'm now just waiting for some parts to come before I start work on the mod.

Do you mean top screen on the TV, bottom in your hands? YES! Well, honestly I'll take it whatever way I can get it, lol. Top screen on the TV would be absolutely fine with me. At first I was thinking I wanted both screens displayed on the TV, but I figure that will be unnecessary extra work since I ...

Hey guys,

I've always wanted to do this mod to the DS Lite, so I'm posting here to ask if anyone here has done it or something similar. The mod would consist of wiring the DS to output video to a TV or monitor using an FPGA. I got the inspiration to do it from this mod: http://home.comcast.net ...
