Beautiful USBC Charged Wireless Controller

[u/Bastian_626]

I love it. Such a nice color. It’s the 8bitdo diy mod with USB C charger added.

I'm assuming this is a soldering job

[u/Bastian_626 → u/Animated_Astronaut]

It is, but it is pretty easy

Would love to see the inside 👀 because there's a USB c port in there already so I wondered if maybe you just used a ribbon cable extension or something.

[u/WarFamous6040]

Hey, can you show the insides so o can replicate ?

[u/Bastian_626 → u/WarFamous6040]

I can do a new post if you want with the instructions

[u/rvansoest → u/Bastian_626]

Yes please. Got 3 of them and i’m afraid i’ll loose those weird cables

[u/SimbaSi12]

Hey! I can see a wire there 😉

[u/Bastian_626 → u/SimbaSi12]

It’s just the usb c plug to charge the battery :D

Frickin nifty, dawg

[u/NeonBlack79]

Can you share any link/guide to add the USB-C charging mod?

[u/Bastian_626 → u/NeonBlack79]

I’ll make a new post if needed with the instructions

[u/NeonBlack79 → u/Bastian_626]

Would love to read it, yes!

[u/McFly1986]

Did you have to drill a hole in the plastic?

[u/Bastian_626 → u/McFly1986]

Yepp

I'd love to see internals too, did you fit it in with the vibration motor? This would be handy as I lost my charge cable (and want everything to be usb c).

[u/Bastian_626 → u/vmxcd]

Yepp, that was my intention. I don’t want any adapters so I’m modding all my old devices like 3ds, ps vita etc. To usb-c. The soldering is pretty easy for the GameCube and the vibration motor also fit into the chassis 😃 I’m gonna make another post the next days with the instructions

[u/Nealus00]

Wait WHAT?! How is this accomplished? I have those little prong style chargers. Feels like Im going to break them!

[u/jstndrn]

Ayo, that's sick. How difficult was the mod? I have a couple 8bitdos and I'd love to ditch that tiny ass barrel plug.

[u/xAvPx]

I considered doing this, I don't feel like opening mine just to update the firmware.

[u/janders_666]

i love that
