7800fan Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 Oh man I want this but I am state side, would it be easier to just purchase a modded Lynx II? Could be done. Just ask and someone with soldering experience and time could pick up the LCD mod and a spare working Lynx, put it together, and sell it to you. I'd offer but my cutting skill is second only to 3 year old with plastic scissors. I know I will have ugly looking hack when I try to install VGA port.

Guitari Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Furtekk - could you please confirm that you are not going ahead with the TV out to scart mod? That way I can use the lynx I have put aside for this mod, for something else. Kind regards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GadgetUK Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 The last I heard he was going to give me a refund, but then he said he was just finishing the manual. Hopefully he's continuing work on this! I guess he's busy. I will keep you posted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guitari Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Either way I get the feeling he is refunding or finish ing work for you. I don't think he'll continue after that for others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krip316 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Of course it would be easier, but that's no fun and it might cost more! If you know a bit about electronics and soldering, it is a fun project. I'm also state side and ordered from McWill on the 24th, so it's going to take some time to get here but it's worth it. In dollars it was $152(shipping included). Oh man I want this but I am state side, would it be easier to just purchase a modded Lynx II? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GadgetUK Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Just a quick update. I had a refund from Furrtek - he's had too many projects on the go! Hopefully he will produce something in future! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spawnshop Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Any update on this? It's very interesting. I never had a Lynx growing up, but it looks like it has some great games, but I'm not really into handheld. Would love to get a Lynx and mod it for VGA or TV out.

108 Stars Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 (edited) The mod from this thread offers what you want: http://atariage.com/forums/topic/233632-lynx-lcd-replacementvga-out-by-mcwill/page-28 You have actually managed to dodge the one thread on page 1 that actually is about a mod that has come to fruition quite well, finding two older threads buried in the forum.^^ Edited August 28, 2015 by 108 Stars 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
7800fan Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 He didn't open old wound by bumping you-know-who's thread. Last I heard, he still owes a few people either the LCD kit or the full refund after dropping off the Earth about 2 years ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spawnshop Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 LOL....sorry guys. Didn't mean to stir up anything. I did find the right thread after these two So how do I "unbump" an thread...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
108 Stars Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 No problem, really. I just found it funny how you found this thread and the other one that is really ancient, but missed the one about the mod that is readily available. I sometimes browse forums and miss the obvious myself, really no big deal. Just a bit funny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If one searched for Lynx TV, it might have not picked up McWill's mod because he didn't advertise it for TV but for VGA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emehr Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 The thread about McWill's mod should be pinned and made front page news, IMO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
