  1. Excellent, that should work perfectly. I already have an s-video mod, it’s just that’s there’s not much that supports s-video natively anymore. Considering it’s the only thing I use the retrotink for, why bother with a clunky setup? Seems simple enough to integrate. I have a Sears heavy, a light 6, and a Vader myself. And your certainly right regarding the RF quality. Not that I’d ever call my Vader’s output “bad”, but the heavy six is noticeably better. As for why I prefer the Vader, it looks cool, and it matches the CX-42 receiver. Thanks for your help love.
  2. I have a really stupid/brilliant idea, basically I want to put a retrotink 2x mini inside an s-video modded Atari 2600 Vader. The idea is to keep the console bone stock looking, with the only visual difference being an HDMI cable instead of an RF cable coming out of the back. I should be able to get +5v off the 7805 to power the 2x, but have no doubt it will burn it out quickly if I do. Can someone recommend a dc/dc converter that is a drop in replacement for the 7805 regulator, preferably with a little extra available amperage? On a side note, can I just remove the RF modulator? It looks like a great place to mount the retrotink, but I don’t know if it’s tied into anything.
