I chose to do this as my first soldering project with an iron, microscope, and switch lite I purchased from temu for a total of $50, along with all the other parts from aliexpress. The microscope had absolutely horrible image quality and stopped working as I was attempting to put on the v2 adapter, so I was forced to eyeball the rest of the steps. Applying that adapter was for some reason the hardest part of the project for me, as I spent at least 30 minutes just trying to get the solder to connect to the caps and spent way too long trying to bridge the two pads, I am very lucky nothing got burnt or something. Eventually, I was able to solder everything correctly, albeit my wire routing was absolutely atrocious for I did not care to measure the length of the wires beforehand. I had issues with wires coming loose and the pico shorting with the metal backplate, so I had to resolder some points and cut a hole in the backplate 😂. All in all, it eventually got working, so I guess anything is possible if you believe in yourself.

Glad to have you back buddy, again thanks for sorting my switch out.

[javascriptboy]

The installation part isn't what kills me. It's having to wait weeks for the chips to arrive because the local people who sell them here triple the price. Great video btw, i wasn't even aware of this sort of chip until now. Reminds me of installing glitch chips to a 360.

I really like the instinct v6 chip because the cpu flex ribbon cable solder for a generic 2040 board is just hard to do reliably. Also the core 2040 mod which the Nand chip plugs directly into is so so soo good! Too bad the place I was getting mine from has vanished haha

[cond.oriano]

Watching this not because I will learn how to do it but rather just to be satisfied that I just paid someone to just mod my switch so I can just sit back and play games 😅

You really deserve wayyy more subscribers. Welcome back my man!

Thanks for this, been waiting for a while!

Last time I attempted this mod, it was an exceptionally tight space and I ended up tearing the DAT0 pad. I'm going to try again soon. What size of iron tip did you use for the DAT0? And what is the gauge of wire you used?

[dionsorel]

What RP2040 board is that? do you have a link available for it?

[magnificenttaco]

@tvpartsworld is a god! Welcome back and cant wait to seem more vids. If you don't mind giving a few tips for us peasants. What solder iron tips are you using as well as the solder whether its lead free or not and lastly your temps, thank you so much. Biggest issues I have is swapping through 20 different solder tips as I cant find any that seems to work well for me.

Hello, nice video there.
But I have one question, can we use another 3, 3v source? Bcs the 3, 3v source at this video is too hard to solder for me.(very small component to solder, and i think 3, 3v source near speaker is bigger than this)

Was it 300 c? That's over 500 degrees Fahrenheit! Do i really need to solder that hot? I usually don't solder past 204c (400f) with a good tip on my solder iron

[Pancicopong]

Why u choose this chip ? Rp2040 lite is come with flexibel, usb for flashing and same design as hwfly for the low price in here, but i didnt know price in your country.

i dont understand the sd card part why you need to update console + what you put in the sd card
