ultrasteve Posted November 16, 2021 Share Posted November 16, 2021 I'm selling my Dragonfly if anyone is interested. Burgundy (red), Pokey Max, YM2151 module, and 5.5/2.1 plug cable. I'm in the UK but will post to Europe or the US on the understanding that all shipping fees will be paid by the buyer, and I won't be responsible for any customs fees / taxes that may be levied. PM me if interested. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rj1307 Posted January 2, 2022 Author Share Posted January 2, 2022 I'm sorry for a long absence, but the last months were not too kind to me For today, Pokeymax modules are not available. To produce dragonfly there are shortage displays, but probably I could adjust another model. Unfortunately, the prices of electronic parts that I use increased by 30-60%, so the price of a cartridge would be more half. As long as the situation with parts does not improve, I do not see the meaning of further production 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately it's too common a story. Take care of yourself first, think about hobby stuff second. Wishing you a better turn of luck in this new year. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rj1307 Posted January 2, 2022 Author Share Posted January 2, 2022 (edited) Thanks for the nice words, as you write - may this year be better. The end of the year was bad, in October there was a car accident, in November an accident with a circular saw (three toes were injured, they had to be fastened with knitting needles), in December my daughter was seriously poisoned with carbon monoxide. I am on sick leave until the end of January. Edited January 2, 2022 by rj1307 1 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to hear about all the difficult things you and family have gone through. I hope 2022 is nothing but great things for you! I use your DragonFly cart on the ZPH show all the time and it's nothing short of amazing and plays everything I've thrown at it. Thank you so much for making this incredible piece of hardware, I don't know what I'd do without it! I hope you're able to continue to create them in the future for more people when things get better. Even if it costs 60% more it's still worth it for everything it's able to achieve on the 7800 and do for the homebrew community! - James 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for thinking of those as they very well might have missed this otherwise. I do hope some of them are able to respond to RJ and get one for use. My DF cart is pretty much always attached to my 7800 these days since it plays everything I've thrown at it without issue for me! 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalafre Posted February 28, 2022 Share Posted February 28, 2022 I hope things are improving for you. I know I’m late to this, but I’m interested in one if you still have any, or I’m willing to be on a waitlist if you plan to make any in the future. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dauber Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Wow. I was today years old when I learned that you don't need two power supplies. For the past year and a half I've been using the 7800's normal power supply PLUS the third-party power supply I bought going to the power input of the Dragonfly! And that detail was in front of me all this time. Really, I'm seriously thinking of getting tested for dyslexia. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had my 9-volt adapter going into the Dragonfly. Then the 7800 power supply going into the console. That's it. No other power cabling.

As mentioned in this thread, some voltage regulators may not handle the extra voltage from the DF well in which case you'd wanna do what you are doing. That hasn't been a big problem though, but especially some that have been replaced were on the line of handling this well from what I understand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dauber Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 There was no other cable hanging out. Don't know about yours, but it's removable on mine. I got confused and thought that it was the cable for 7800s with the modded power thingy -- I was wondering why I got that because I thought that was an optional extra.

I guess I forgot it was removable since I never take mine out. It is nice how it turns off your 7800 for you when you pick a game. Though mine wasn't cutting power long enough until they added the option to set how many ms the delay is. Once I bumped that up after the update, it was working as intended!
