This regulator works very well and I am currently using right now in my gameboy pocket. Simple installation and gets the job done. My favorite detail is that all the unnecessary contacts were removed, leading to less soldering in the end.
It brought my Game Boy Color back to life and Im excited to try it out with a new ips screen.
Does what it says. I haven't tested it a ton for battery life but I'm sure it helps.
I thought the installation would be hard, but it's quite easy
