DIY GP Light

[mcgee.]

Hi,

I've just gotten my GP32, and also ordered a generic GBA Wormlight. I read that article about adapting such a light to use with the GP, but the author mentioned having to purchase a plug.

I think I read in this forum somewhere that the plug is exactly the same as a Samsung T100 Mobile Phone's Data Port Plug - Is this true?

This is my first post. I lurked for a week, before deciding to purchase my GP. I look forward to being part of the community! Heya!

It is actually the Samsung R200 / R210. Unless the R100 uses the same connector as the R200 that is.

This information can be found at Darfader's Website: http://users.raketnet.nl/darkfader/http://...t/gp32/ext.html

Regarding the connector

Part Number 3050-18P-0.5HTBD manufactured by Hyupjin Inc. More information can be found on the link http://www.hyupjininc.com/eng/product/3050_1802pin.htm

looks like a real easy mod.

Does anyone know where I can buy one of these connectors on the internet?

I'd be interested in getting one of thoose connectors as well... has anyone tried looking at Maplin or RS online?

Funny story, I bought this wormlight for the NGPC which needed an adaptor thingy to plug it into the NGPC. After one of my friends freaked me out by plugging it into my wonderswan (more like SHOVED it in) I figured out it worked on the wonderswan without any adaptor... he...he....hehe.... yeah whatever.
