Prime Time Funk Mods: How to LiPo Mod a Gameboy Pocket

In which I describe how I added a LiPo battery and charge unit to a Gameboy Pocket to make both the IPS screen and my Everdrive flash cart work. Fair warning; the tp4056 charging board doesn't do well with fast charging blocks; just use a standard one or you could blow a fuse.

Use flushcutters to carefully clip away the bulk of the battery compartment. Take your time so as not to ruin the shell or cut away too much 2. Use a Dremel to clean up the cuts and fine tune. If no Dremel is available, a craft knife and some time will work too. Make sure to maintain screw posts and the general boundaries of the compartment so the door will still clip into place. 3. Setting soldering iron to 300 degrees F°, carefully heat and remove positive and negative battery contacts from the PCB with a soldering iron and some strong tweezers. 4. Use a piece of double-sided tape to secure the board in place above the phillips screw hole on the right side of the board. Use pencil to mark the placement of the charge board. 5. Loosely fit the back shell over top to get a sense of where to cut the hole for the charge port and mark the cutting area with pencil. 6. Use drill bit on the Dremel to drill 3 holes and establish the boundaries of the cut, and then use micro files to do the rest. Take your time. 7. Fit the back shell in place to test your new charge port hole and ensure fit and exposure. Adjust as needed. 8. Prepare your wires; Cut a small length of black and red to go from the board to the battery terminals on the PCB. Strip only a little at the ends and tin those wires and the wires on the battery. IMPORTANT: Before you trim the battery wires, stop and measure or at least eyeball what length you will need for there to be some slack, but not too much. It will be needed. See picture for reference. 9. Add some solder to the contact points on the tp4056 board and some extra to the battery terminal holes on the PCB if needed. Don't go crazy with the solder- it's easier to add than to remove 10. Solder black wire to the B- contact closest to the edge on the charge board and then to the BT- port on the PCB. Cover contact on board with capton tape. 11. Solder red wire to the B+ contact closest to the edge on the charge board and then to the BT+ port on the PCB. 12. Now that you have a guide to which is black and red, solder the battery contact wires to the innermost positive and negative ports on the charge board. 13. Put the back shell on, screw it all down and fit your battery. If you have removed enough of the battery compartment, there should be JUST enough space to fit the battery in there and cover it with the door with no shenanigans. 14. Plug the charge board in and make sure you see the red charging light. You don't want to glue that board down and find out later that the board is defective. 15. Remove back shell and secure the charge board down in place with either super glue or hot glue used sparingly. I recommend doing both. Make sure you are adhering to the pencil marks you made earlier so you don't glue it down in the wrong spot. 16. Cover the charge board with capton tape to avoid any shorts or direct contact with the battery. 17. At this point, you will want to fit the PCB back in place onto the front shell and screen, screw it in place, reconnect the ribbon and resolder any display contacts that you need to (i.e. the two ribbon solder points on the Funny Playing IPS ribbon or the white wire on the low-draw IPS screen) look over all solder points for opportunities to heat up and reflow hastily done contacts. 18. Use capton tape to secure the wires leading from the charge board to the PCB contacts to the board. The battery wires will take care of themselves, and you need some slack to remove the battery later. 19. Fit back shell in place again, carefully pulling the battery through the bay hole. After it is screwed down, carefully fit and slide the battery into place and close it up. 20. Turn it on and play!
