Kill the inverter circuit

If you're making a portable you probably need something to watch it on. (Unless you want to guess what's happening in the game, but I wouldn't advise that) Anyway, this forum is your "Hacking a pocket TV/screen" one-stop solution. Share your experiences and knowledge here.

You mean the thing on top part of the board?

That's for the power for the normal bulb. So you have to do the led mod.

yeah i'm doing the mod right now
but I was wondering since I took off the transformer can I just leave the
inverter thing alone and it not cause any problems?

Yes, if you're talking about the big brown thing. You can just take that off completely.
