This is a high quality kit that contain Nichicon and Panasonic caps.
Simply replace the capacitor with the same capacitance on the board. It's okay if the voltage rating is higher.
INCLUDED:
- 1x Capacitor Kit
DOCUMENTATION:
- DMG Ceramic Cap Instructions
- Console5 Wiki - contains cap list and values.
NOTES:
- After careful part selection, analysis, and long-term testing by Console5, these kits will replace the 5x ultra-miniature 1uF caps on the DMG-LCD board with ceramic caps.
- The kit has 3x 10uF 35V capacitors that are meant for C3 on the DMG-LCD-06 and C5, C6 on DMG-CPU-06.
Replacing the old caps in your DMG should be essential - the OEM ones are very old now and can potentially leak and cause damage to your board. It can also cause other issues that can potentially lead to a non-working DMG, or lead to smaller issues like lots of noise and grime on the headphone output. With desoldering wick and simple soldering skills I found replacing them all to be pretty easy! The components are rather big compared to modern components, so I feel like someone relitively new to soldering would be able to do this. The thing works like a dream now and the audio out is noticeably more crisp and "bass-y". Highly recommended for any DMG, modded or not! Keep your DMGs healthy!
Exactly that, great replacement capacitors. Exactly what I needed for my gameboy. I didn’t have any issues with said gameboy before, but I always replace the caps with more modern ones to prevent issues in the future. These will get that job done well.
This is a very high quality capacitor kit. Each is the correct specifications and size. Takes time to replace (desolder and resolder), but totally worth it! Fixed a power issue and screen contrast issue that I had.
Good product that does the job nicely, the tantalum caps are especially nice. The only downside was that the caps were taped together and thus a bit tricky to "release" without using force. Just make sure to be careful!
Awesome, quick shipping
Everything in one place, thats what i love about Handheld Legend.
