Re: [WANTED] JP2 connector that fits the Powerboost battery port

Isn't the Powerboost's connector a male plug? I think these are the correct cables, but you're mixing up the two. My PowerBoost 1000 Charger from Adafruit has got 2 pins. The Plug i attached to my battery has got 2 holes, but it is a male plug with 2 holes and the charger has got 2 pins in a hole k...

Re: [WANTED] JP2 connector that fits the Powerboost battery port

For those of you still looking for male connectors to hook up to a battery, I ordered these from Amazon (Saim's Store as seller) with prime shipping. They fit, and are 24AWG- which seems to be a great thickness for their purpose. I also confirmed they fit in the powerboost without issue, though a l...

Re: D56: Gameboy Pi3

Awesome build Doom, I am also doing a Pi3 for my second build. I am curious as to why a USB sound card might be needed for this build when the PI3 already has line level sound out via the headphone jack? Could this not be used to feed directly into an amp for the speaker?

Re: Popcorn's GBZ

This looks like a snake pit covered in honey. I LOL'd big time. That's how I felt about mine too. I should have shortened more wires as I finalized positioning, but I ended up saying "meh" and sandwiched it all together.

Re: chiz's GB Pi2

Pro tip: If you buy that octopus USB hub that Chiz grabbed, whatever you do, DO NOT remove the existing cables. Cut the cables with a pair of wire cutters to expose all the wires and use those to solder. I was an idiot and desoldered everything off the board thinking I could resolder it back later....
