@ 8:02 - no, I won't call you an idiot - but popping the connector pins out of the connector and reversing then would have been a LOT quicker and easier, plus the colours remain correct! I use the tip of a No. 10 scalpel blade to push in the little spring-retainers in the connector housing, then gently pull the wire out. There's even a tool to do this if you are feeling a bit flush! The scalpel is easier and cheaper.

Sadly, the battery in that exact size is pretty much unobtanium. This is the number off the battery: SL805154 which translates to 8.0mm x 51mm x 54mm dimensions. Likely Evercade had these battery pouches custom made to fit their use case. The closest I could find is a 804040 which will fit, but is obviously smaller than the original, so you'll be missing some battery life compared to the original.
I love the Ebay "truths"..."Only used it once, but now it only works off of the charger". Then you return it under warranty. Not flog it for a loss on fleabay.
Steve , love the channel, and the fact you have a high success rate with repairs and no formal training . I have had some training but like you prefer to just jumped right in and let's see what we can. One suggestion. when you scan boards under your scope please slow down I'm goin crosseyed trying to follow along. Thanks
Hello !! i have the same game console and the same problem , it's commun issue , now i know what's the problem because of you ! THANKS !!!! Now i'm just going to find an other battery for my game console , because i'm not so good to soldering little pieces , i solder many electonics on guitar but not tiny elements and i'm not electronician . this vidéo help me so much and probably help many people ! Thank you for the video. Take Care !
Hey Steve, you can usually use a higher value cap, think of it like a glass of water. The only thing to really worry about with caps is using a lower voltage cap on a higher voltage.
It is incredibly easy to swap the terminals with a little practice. It only needs a sharp pointy object to pry the plastic tab and the terminal will back out. You can use a safety pin, or any other kind of pin. But a utility knife blade or point on some tweezers also works. The benefit is that you keep the correct wire colors, and it's much quicker to do, no soldering.
At about 11:45 you can see a component on the battery module which seems to have a small crack. Between numbers 8 and 2. Could that be the reason for the failures?
I've swapped the protection boards on batteries before for a Zune - the cell had failed but I couldn't find a 3-wire replacement in the right size, so got a 2-wire and swapped the original protection board on. Worked fine!
For the charge control board swap from one battery to another, as long as the batteries have the same voltage rating, it should be fine to swap them. For 8:10 I have always found it faster to just change the pins around in the plug of that type of battery. Ya just use your tweezers to lightly push up the plastic holding the pins in and the pins pop out easily. the swap them around, they'll snap right back in, and ready to go!
When I worked tech for a school district, one of the Chromebook models we purchased 3000+ units of had a common issue with the battery management board. Over 10% failure rate, cost that company over $20k in battery replacements.
My mate gave me his faulty one which has a similar issue. Works fine with a different battery connected, or on USB power. Screen flashes and does nothing in the original battery. Couldn't find a replacement battery the same size, only smaller is physical size and capacity. Will be taking a look at the management board. Cheers
First time watching your videos and I subscribed right after I heard the rap at the beginning. You definitely deserve more than 142k subs man. Your videos are funny.
Great Steve! I did the same couple of weeks ago, replaced the BMS and I worked great! Did you perhaps read some info on Reddit where I posted some info/photos? Have to watch the end, but guess you will replace the BMS😊
Stupid EXP! ....Yep, it's just happened to mine. And it does seem like a relatively common problem. The main issue being that the odd sized battery means it is nearly impossible to find a good replacement for it!!! ...I am not a techy so opening and fiddling about inside terrifies me (even though it is outside warrantee) , so I went for the easy solution and bought a slim power-bank! Job done. (It fits nicely into the case with the EXP.)
Love your video's Steve, entertaining and I really love your common sense style to diagnosing these problems. Just gotta bug you, what is a Bat-tree? lol
Great video! Please try to find what's wong with that charging module i want to know what is causing the fault 😂. For the capacitor value why not looking for the datasheet in the application circuit section. normally those circuit are pretty standard this capacitor should be a 0.1uF (decoupling) one.
Don’t work on the battery protection boards without first disconnecting the cells! I was half expecting flames and explosions when you flooded the pins with the low melt solder 😂
Hey Steve- where did you get the armature for your microscope? I’ve got the same scope and my only complaint is the distance between the scope and the base…
Thanks for your time. Just two questions, sorry to be annoying, is the pcb for any battery valid, or does it have to be the same mh as the original? Do you have a reference to the battery you used for the replacement? Thank you very much again, I look forward to playing with my namco museum again.
Where do you get the small resistors and other items from? I have a few projects I would like to take a crack at, however I am having the worst luck finding a solid place to buy them from.
just a thought, hire that olympic breakdance lady to dance to your charmingly bad rap song :) .I love the channel and all the effort you put in. your my boy, blue
Dude! You are SOOOOOOOOOO lucky putting that battery in the wrong way around didn't fry anything. I got a battery and plugged it into my Adafruit Powerboost 500 and it made the magic smoke. Whoops.
7:47 So every time someone on Star Trek said they "need to reverse the polarity of the neutron flow" it just meant that they'd plugged it in the wrong way round.
Steve you finally said 'ammeter' . 'Ampmeter' has been driving me potty and making me laugh at the same time every time you said it. Now I know you know the correct version I don't care what you call it. Just love your videos. Very therapuetic and your joy when the lights come on is a pleasure to behold😊.
At 10:30 you can't measure continuity of an active device like a battery. It's even dangerous for your multimeter to do so. Why? Because to measure continuity the meter is sending a small voltage across, and measuring whether the voltage is present at the other end. But with a battery of course there will be a voltage across the terminals. Where it gets dangerous for your meter is how many amps your batter delivers because you're essentially short-circuiting the battery through your meter. Of course it has protection (high impedance and so on) but nothing is immune to a high enough current and voltage combination.
I am getting as bad as you Steve when it works after your magic you do l am Shouting at the screen get in there 😂 well done please keep your videos coming love them can l make a suggestion do you remember that clock radio and you put Bluetooth in was it a Alexa l think that was a great idea can you do something like that again 😊

Google JST connector
I was thinking he should sand/file down the connector so it fits both ways, then hot glue it in place if he wants it in there permanently...
Your meter has a long beep when you try checking for continuity with voltage present. Continuity should only be used on deenergised circuits. 😊
Yep! I tried screaming to the screen "UNSOLDER THE BATTERY FIRST!!" but Steve wouldn't listen..😅
Remember, he is below average on his work his soldiering is shocking.

Just when you went to read the 8205A chips name. it appeared to cracked or is that just me? 11:44
So glad you didn’t say 'stupid game' to Galaxian…… My all time fav game from 1983…! I have special skills, I would’ve found you…!
Always check your polarity and remember you got to "Reverse the polarity" it fixes everything, or so the Doctor told me :P

8:06 ahh the ‘Vincenzo clause’ ❤
A LiPo below 3,2 Volt is often damaged beyond repair. Usually the protection curcuits dont even try to charge them to avoid overheating.

yes, and because it evaporates, it is not wise to leave the bottle open because the cap is used as a a holder for cleaning but none the less good job.
You can de pin the connector. You have to lift or pus a safety clip and pull the wire from it.
