sweeeet!

board arrived, looks good, tsop and two video hybrids!

guess now I just need to source all my capacitors/resistors and I can start work on building it.

wondering if we should start a build-a-long thread or something?

Just a quick question. I've been looking for the 100nF 0,1uF 1206 capacitor. I have seen 3 types, 16v 25v 50v. Which is the one used in a gba1000?

Thanks to anyone who can help me.

I know mouser stock 6.3/10/16/20/25/30/35/50/64/100/150/200/250/450v I'm guessing we dont need 450VDC capacitors :) I'm guessing its probably in the 6.3-16 range but dont know for certain. I need to read over the schematics in more detail

Hi All,

Been a busy weekend for the wrong reasons. Temperature went from the zero range up to 21 degrees C and caused a lot of flooding so i spend some time helping out my friends in their cabins. I had 3 feet of snow in my back yard on Friday which has now gone so you can imagine the amount of thaw we had.

Also, my heating element on my soldering iron gave up and i was just able to scrounge a soldering iron (cheapie) till i get a replacement later this week and finally, i was able to get 4 more boards sent off before i ran out of decent cardboard that i was using to make the homemade boxes. Sooo, i persauded the cafeteria at work to order me a whole pile of pizza boxes which will be here tomorrow so i will be mailing a whole pile on Friday. I haven't had a chance to get hardly any of my other boards done as well so sorry for delays.
Thanks for your patience.

NB, i messed up on a couple of orders and accidentally sent as small packet instead of tracked packet, so i owe a refund to a couple of you. I'll msg those concerned when i get a chance to sit down and go thru the paperwork (I really do hate paperwork, thats why i became a tech, figured less paperwork... hmmm, didn't work out too good either lol

Hi All,

For those people that bought the Video Hybrid Kit i will post a PDF with the board layout so you can see what goes where and how etc

Dear kipper2k,

First of all...Thanks for the great job!!:thumbsup:

Just a short question...we will need (at least some of us) some 'proof of value' for our local Customs....have you inserted any 'invoices' in the package (or other docs)?

Any chance to get something usefull for the Customs purposes (value wise)?

Same question to other forum members who ordered this board (and already received...possibly in EU)....how did you arrange it with the Customs?

Still waiting for mine....but better to be ready than sorry...:D

Thanks!

Hi croupier,
I am from Poland, it is hard to say how different are the customs procedures between our countries, but it is the same EU. In my case the package was delivered by postal car, and postman had also invoice from custom office. Then I paid it (actually it is not custom pay, it is VAT, but documents are issued by custom office) to him by cash, signed invoice, and package was mine. When I ordered some stuff from US before, the procedure was exactly the same.
I never had to do anything until postman rang to my door ;) Everything was done by postal officers, the role of mine was to sign, pay and take the package.
Information delivered by kipper during sending the package was enough for them, there was no need to prepare any special document.
If you have any doubts ask at your post office.

Thanks wali7!

it's the info I was looking for...:)...also kipper2k confirmed that he inserted a nominal value for the package...so this should be Ok...

When I receive packages from outside EU without any value stated then I'm always requested from the Customs to provide an invoice or some kind of 'value statement'....:thumbsdown:

Thanks again!

Hi,

Email is full again, i emptied some out. There is always a customs form that i have to attach to packages when i mail out the items overseas and the value is declared on the form so that should be good enough for customs.

And also good news, i now have enough "Pizza boxes" to mail up everyones order who has paid (up to this point) this weekend so hopefully come monday morning there shouldnt be any outstanding orders left to mail.

Board Arrived - Yaaay

My GBA board and IC's arrived here in the UK today - Thanks for all you hard work Kipper2k, PJM and Tahoe, it is really appreciated by us all :D

Picked it up from the Royal Mail post office earlier having paid Her Majesty's Customs a little more of my salary for the courtesy of importing this fine item.

Really glad I asked Kipper to solder the tsop - that thing is tiiiiiiny :wooha:

Just nervously thinking where to start now... small SMT's first I guess so best hold off that glass of red.

Mum sent me a text to say a parcel arrived today from Canada with 35 x $1.80 stamps on it.

I went hmmmmm... LOL

So I guess it's all there! Not sure when I'll make it down south in the immediate future but a done deal none the less!

Awesome, cheers! :-)

LOL, imagine how i felt when i had a pile of boxes to mail and the lady in the post office she says she needs to use up her stamps as she can't return them, I cringe when i have to go there :)

When my wife saw that one side of my GBA1000 box is completly covered with the stamps, she said you must be extremely dehydrated after sticking all these stamps on all of these packages ;)
Thanks once more for your effort :)

@Kipper
I sent you PM asking the shipping cost for my items, I'm not sure what weight it is, so I don't know how much to pay. I want to go with tracked parcel if possible.
I ordered from amiga.org (same nick name as here)
Thanks.
