[prerunnerseth]

I got shipping confirmation this morning. These are on their way. I will try my hardest to get them sent out to you guys this week. Appreciate your patience. I will start another batch once these are shipped.

Thanks,

PRS

Is the pinout the same as the older one? Can I wire up my cartridge reader based off this image?

Yes! just remember to remove the connector from the board first. It wont work with the card edge connector still soldered to the original game boy board

what's the card edge connector ?

Sounds like the area that the cartridge physically connects to. Basically the cartridge won't read if the reader is connected to the original PCB.

@prerunnerseth: I know this was discussed before but we can run LEDs for charging/low battery/charged through those extra pins right? How should i go about getting those wired? From the cartridge reader to the powerboost lights?

The card edge connector is the one that the cart plugs into and that you are soldering the wires to. Yes you can run LEDs through the extra wires. I would just solder the two legs of the leds to the card edge connector then jumper your leds to the extra pads on the cart board.

Yeah I know, after half an hour of solder sucking then busting out the dremel got the damn thing off.

I gathered from your posts in the thread where I found the pic, that first lot of pins should be soldered to 2 pins to reduce the impedance or something, but it still works if you soldier them to single pins. Right?
