PART 2: ADD WIRELESS CHARGING TO ANY GAMEBOY ADVANCE SP! | GBA SP Mod Tutorial v1.0 | Retro Renew

In today's episode of Retro Renew, I continue my efforts in adding wireless charging capability to the Gameboy Advance SP. Before watching Part 2, make sure to check out Part 1 of this mini-series by clicking here:    • PART 1:  ADD WIRELESS CHARGING TO ANY...  .

In an attempt to keep the OEM aesthetic of the Gameboy Advance SP, I will be using a thinner battery to compensate for the space taken up by the wireless charging module and hopefully will be able to fully close the battery compartment. Will the thinner battery be thin enough? Stay tuned and find out!
