I mean what IF it's a $3 Contra

Check that pin 4 has ground connection.
Check that pin 8 has power (≈7.3V)
Power for all 4558 IC506, IC507, IC503, IC521 (also IC203 CD part and IC202 CD part but 4560) gets its regulated power from Q304 (SMD Mark BR, located in the middle of the cap jungle beside the two main regulators) Japanese SOT-23 (SC-70) incoming ≈8.2V on pin 3, outgoing ≈7.3V on pin 2 and pin 1 should ≈8.0V, IC107 4558 (CD part).

Quote from: VenomMacbeth on 11/20/2015, 11:41 AMIt's my first attempt at a model 1. Replacing caps and fuses is easy though time consuming...I am not sure what I would do if the mechanical bits were busted...Quote from: pdiggitydogg on 11/20/2015, 05:27 AMI received a broken model 1 Sega CD yesterday. Fuse is bad but sonis the transistor and the drive belt. Gears seem OK!If you or anyone you know repairs these, let me know as I've got one disassembled somewhere in the depths of my closet
The faceplate is pretty wrecked though
Quote from: TDIRunner on 11/12/2015, 02:48 PMWell for what it's worth, Deunan's most recent update indicated that he is stil planning on going after the PC Engine. That doesn't mean it will happen, but since Phoebe seems to be about finished, maybe he can dedicate more time to it.QuoteI will use that time to get some rest, finally finish the next proto PCB for PCE, and play Fallout 4.I've been following that. I wasn't aware there was a new update.
It's encouraging

Also, first post, so hello everyone.
Quote from: Desh on 11/11/2015, 09:01 AMThis is my hangup.Quote from: pdiggitydogg on 11/11/2015, 05:16 AMThat was the major drawback to my setup. The A/C port became the charging port (the A/C port was no longer connected in it's original location but rather wired directly to the battery packs). Since, all of my charging protection occurred in the extern charging unit you could not play while the batteries were charging. You also did not have a way to use a wall adapter if the batteries were dead.Quote from: Desh on 11/10/2015, 09:34 AMBy connecting the lipo set to the oe battery points, internally, does it still charge with the original jack/adapter? Can you use the AC for power when the batteries are flat?Quote from: turbokon on 11/09/2015, 07:00 PMI'm getting about 3hr 40mins run time. Charging time is a lot longer, i can you tell it's over 4 hours (went to bed before it finished charging).Also, I had wired my setup (since I was basically using just the batteries and all of my safeties were external) directly to the factory battery prong locations (removed the prongs). The battery light still worked correctly when done this way. However, there was not a ton of warning. I think I would only get maybe 60-90 seconds more usage after the light would come on. Just enough to hopefully save your game if you were playing Beyond Oasis or something like that.
pdiggitydogg, yes, I separated ground and positive of the ac jack from main mother board and wired them to step down convertor. The low battery led on the nomad doesn't blink on low battery with this mod. It stays lid.
This was one of the major issues I hoped I could change in the future. I think turbokon is on the right path with his setup. I think I should use his ideas but change the charging circuit up a bit

Quote from: Bernie on 11/03/2015, 05:05 PMI pm'd and volunteered to be bumped for old timers. I know my place.Quote from: guest on 11/03/2015, 05:01 PMThis thread has set a new record for unfamilar/low-post-count usernames outside of a raffle thread.Ive noticed that. How I have been dealing with that is this. When an old timer PMs me, he/she automatically goes to the front of the line. I feel that is only fair, even though I am sure we will have enough to go around.
I suspect that this period will also see a record number of new users.
