Before I fry another board, I have some questions that I must ask...
I've heard of some people using Lithium Ion Polymer 14.8v batteries to power the gamecube portable without any regulator to lower the voltage to 12v.
I believe that a fully charged LiPo are at 16.2v because of the voltages that the LEDs turn on in the fuel gauge.
Am I right in this assumption that they are at 16.2v fully charged?
Because if it does release that many volts, can the gamecube take that? What is the max voltage that a GameCube can have inputted into the stock power regulator?
If I bought this charger, would I be able to run the system off of this without a regulator (such as a 7812)?
EDIT: In case this makes any difference, my board is a Rev C. Just thinking it may have a tolerance to a greater range of voltages than the Rev A or B's.
