INSTRUCTIONS:

  • Remove the old power board and insert the new CleanJuice power board.
  • Insert both batteries into the AA battery compartments and feed the wires through.
  • Connect the batteries to the CleanJuice board in any order (Connector only fits in one way). 
  • The battery with the longer cable should be placed in the compartment that is further away from the CleanJuice board. Refer to the product images to see the setup.
  • If you're using a regular / OEM Game Gear shell you will have to trim the battery compartment stumps to fit the batteries in the battery compartments. 
  • If you're using a RetroSix shell there is not need for modification.
  • Put the battery covers back on the console and you're ready to go.
  • Fully charge the CleanJuice and enjoy over 13 hours of battery life with the CleanScreen and CleanAmp mods installed.
  • Compatible with all Game Gear versions. Trimming may be required to plug in to VA4/VA5 units. See photos for where to trim if the connector does not fit.
  • Board has two LED's - USB and CHARGE. 
  • The tiny switch located on the middle right of the board should be positioned to the left in order to enable the 34V for an original LCD. Otherwise it should be positioned to the right for any modern LCD kit, including CleanScreen series.

DOCUMENTATION:

NOTES:

  • Current version (8/28/24) is V1.3.0.
  • Created by RetroSix.

Light Indicator Key:

  • If the USB labeled light on the board is on, this means the USB cable is providing power to the system. This also means you can power your console from the USB without draining the battery - plug and play option.
  • If the CHG labeled light on the board is on, this means the USB is charging the battery. When it goes off, the battery is fully charged.
  • Both indicator lights will be on when module is charging. When module is fully charged, only the USB light will remain.
  • If you connect a USB cable and the USB light does not turn on, your cable or power supply are faulty.

WARNINGS:

Risk of fire if improperly charged or if battery is punctured. Only use protected power sources along with power delivery (PD) compliant cables and chargers. Using uncertified hardware may result in more than 5v being delivered to your CleanJuice product. Damage caused by unsupported hardware voids our return/exchange policy. Examples of supported chargers:

  • Nintendo Switch charger
  • MacBook Pro type C charger
  • Samsung type C charger
  • Google Pixel charger
  • USB A to USB C cable (certified only!)

Risk of fire is also possible if PCB is used with AA batteries or battery packs are inserted backwards.

    Have had trouble with Everdrive GG X7

    I have this battery setup with the Clean Screen mod and my Everdrive GG X7 flash cart never works. The setup works fine with regular cartridges. And I like the USB-C action. It wasn't tough to install. It just doesn't seem to put out enough power for the Everdrive in my heavily modded configuration. I've tried multiple charges.

    Much needed modern upgrade

    So the features of this pcb upgrade are perfect no matter how you want to build your GameGear. If you want to keep the backlit lcd or if you want to install a more modern ips or tft screen it has adjustment on it to meet those needs also. You can adjust voltages directly on the board and test the batteries. It also has leds on the pcb to show power on/off as well as charging. I think I will install some light pipes through to the front cover for added cool factor. You really can’t go wrong with this upgrade!
