NOOOOOOOOOOO!XCVG said:I think 14.8V is fine, but I'm not sure since I've never built a GCp. SS probably knows, talk to him.
Hmmm... It would seem that the 12v line is more versatile then I thought.eurddrue said:Kasar used 14.8v.
Would an admin please delete this spambot? It's starting to annoy me.brucemendes said:Hi..
U can not use 14.8 volt direct line because it is a direct current and it may be damage your laptop.So, charge your laptop charger is required.
But it's so adowable!eurddrue said:Would an admin please delete this spambot? It's starting to annoy me.brucemendes said:Hi..

bacteria said:I read somewhere recently that 7.4v (as I use) runs the disk drive slightly slower but not noticeably, 14.8v runs the system fine but the disk drive runs a bit fast - should be ok but you might get read errors with the disc. Other issue of course is heat; 7.4v runs cooler than 12v and naturally if you use 14.8v, it will make your system even hotter to run. The TI cards are fine to run with up to 18v maximum input (according to the TI datasheet). Measure the voltage from your battery after charge to check it doesn't exceed that.
Well when i turn it on, i have to wait about 7 seconds before the gamecube logo shows up with an errorbacteria said:What sort of errors? Can we help?
The power board does, but not if you made your own power board, at least according to zenloc.XCVG said:bacteria said:I read somewhere recently that 7.4v (as I use) runs the disk drive slightly slower but not noticeably, 14.8v runs the system fine but the disk drive runs a bit fast - should be ok but you might get read errors with the disc.

The only problem is that the power board needs at least 10V to run.
