you have to have the right amount of volts on your batterys like if i had a gcp i would need 19.5 volts

ok... what's your question now?

I think he announcing his knowledge of voltage?

Post by **Gamelver** » Mon Feb 27, 2006 1:14 pm

or lack of knowledge

...er, the GC needs 12V-16V. I've only tried 16V/12V......

check you might get an idea, all sorts of crazy ones. Some people have made laptops in briefcases, and some have made them in lunch boxes. It's a cool sit, so check it out. http://www.mini-itx.com/

sorry i meant a gcp with a psone screen

Post by **Gamelver** » Mon Feb 27, 2006 3:53 pm

still only 12-16V

...you don't add the voltages...the psone screen needs 7.2-9V and the GC needs 12-16V. the 12-16V would go into the cube, and then it would have to be converted into 7.2V-9V for the screen.

so you need a converter

Yes....you would...I think it would be a 7805 regulator...I'm wrong, I just know it though.

is he right

7805 makes 5 Volts, so that's not it. 7808 maybe?

well what is it

Post by **Gamelver** » Mon Feb 27, 2006 4:05 pm

a 7808 or some other regulator/DC-DC converter that outputs 7.2V-9V
