Title: Finished my UA5 mods... yeah!
Post by: kev B on February 19, 2004, 09:20:54 PM
Well, I finally built my batt pack... completed sucessfully.  ;D  Then, I tackled the digi mod. It took me an hour to find a magnifying glass and touch up on my soldering skills. Well, after 6 tries, this task was sucessfully completed. The optical-out glows red on the stand alone trial. I did, however, manage to scorch the board a little and turn it gray/white in a spot. I can't seem to notice any side effects (and there is no smoke). Will that cause any harm? Alright, I am done gloating on a job well done *pats self on back*  8)

As long as you didn't let any smoke OUT of it, it'll be fine.  ;)
