USB Line Voltage Inducer

[lostinspace]

A few weeks ago I saw this guide of how to make a Dreamcast Line Voltage Inducer, powered via USB ( no batteries )



" Dreamcast : Construire un Line Voltage Inducer pour connecter sa Dreamcast "

Have you seen any other cool projects, like step by step , or did you ever make a USB line voltage inducer ?

I've actually been making my own USB LVI cables and selling them on eBay using the below PCB design:

Mine uses a 9v USB to barrel jack cable found for around $1.50 each on Aliexpress with the custom PCB and a phone line. Lemme tell you though, those 0805 SMD capacitors and resistors are a pain to solder.

Nice, yeah quite tiny, need to have a steady hand for that . Thanks for sharing. So, in that method you use a 9v usb "charger" for a NTSC Dreamcast , right ?
