Got some supplies that I'd ordered in. Big thing was 100 feet of 26 AWG stranded wire. Flexible and strong. Cut 48 of them into small pieces, stripped and tinned the ends, then got to working on the cartridge slot. A whole lot of tedious work. Won't know if it works until next week when I can power the whole thing with the PSone Screen.
Also desoldered the connectors from the PSone screen base. They'll come in handy later for power, expansion, and A/V connections.
Lastly I got these Single cell Lipo batteries in series and hooked them up to a protection circuit. The batteries will work with this specific charger designed for double cell battery packs. Note to self: don't short batteries on the protection circuit. I fried the board so I'll be getting a new one. Just glad the batteries are still fine. I soldered onto the battery tabs, shrink tubed them, and taped em down for strain relief. Not taking any chances. Will be shrink tubing the protection circuitry board as well when the new one shows up from Batteryspace.com
