Follow up video to test if there's a similar CPU-06 bug in the OLED kit since I used a CPU-06 board (with Rev E CPU) in my original install.
Older video for an obsolete kit but that probably explains this issue a little bit too: • [OBSOLETE KIT] Game Bo...
TL;DW -- I was unable to reproduce any issues with either a CPU-02 or CPU-04 board (Rev B and D CPUs respectively) and my normal power usage testing is largely invalid for OLED devices due to the variance in draw depending on the specific content of the screen.

It's possible the issue I was told about is exclusive to CPU-01 boards with REV A CPUs but since I don't have one, I cannot confirm. I assumed it was a similar issue as what the 9380 kits were experiencing but since this OLED kit works fine on CPU-02 and 04 boards with REV B and D CPUs respectively, it seems that the issue is unrelated. Additionally, the kit maker tested this issue too. They did have a CPU-01 board but they did not have the same games so it's still not ruled out. Perhaps the original issue was just an improperly seated connector?

this oled until now have no downsides, pretty good price for what u get, im gonna do it with a battery mod, would love to see u test it

@ToxicMedz

That cart pcb you used towards the end of the video at the 28min mark, is that a Makho exclusive thing or is that available somewhere? Looks very handy.

I did this mod and own the Japanese version of Kirby tilt n tumble and I haven’t had any issues with it. I can’t remember what type of motherboard I have in it though.

@Echuu_X

have you tried turning off the gameboy color logo for the power draw test?

@fmdesperado6110

You see, I'm a simple man. When I see a Makho video, I autolike.

@roninstormYT

will you do a rachargable battler mod with the game boy ?

Hey, could you link me to more info about his issue? Maybe some images or description of what happens? I think I might be experiencing the issue in question. I have a CGB-CPU-03 with REV C CPU. For me, the horizontal pixels seem to shift left a few seconds after first power on. I can fix it temporarily by turning the system off and on about three times and then the picture stays stable. But it comes back after not playing for a while.

@CamilleSunnita

Makho, could you make a video creating a GBC or GBA with your most favorite mods? :)

What's up with the LEGO pieces on your mat?

Hey everyone.this is a random question but I struggle to find help does anyone know how I can dim the power led of a moded GBC it's kinda to bright 😅

@JohnnyKillerTech

From my personal experience, boards 03 & 04 are the most common with CPU C & D. For me 03 D is solid, never had issues. The problem was with CPU C and under had issues. D up had no issues. 03 could have C or D depending on date manufacture.
