## Description

*Photos taken with Bivert Modification* How did we ever play our Game Boys without an illuminated screen? Unless you had a clunky attachment and some extra batteries, this task was not easy for a 90's kid who just wanted to play Pokemon at night. 9 rich color choices Thinnest backlight available at 1.23mm >90% uniformity DMG and Pocket compatible V3: Super thin with a flat FCP cable and Resistors built in (excludes RGB) Not only is this backlight compatible with the original DMG, but also the Game Boy Pocket. Now you can play both consoles in the dark or give your Game Boy a makeover! You can also display your screen in an "inverted" orientation to give your pixels a retro look. Whats included with your kit: 1 colored HHL backlight of your choice Two 28 gauge pre-tinned wires (excludes RGB) 1 polarization film 2 Resistors built in! (excludes RGB) Don't have a Game Boy? Your best bet on finding one for a decent price is on ebay. ***We recommend that you always use a resistor when installing into a Game Boy pocket (as well as the DMG) at the 5V source to eliminate flickering and burnout***Do not use cleaning agents such as alcohol*** Required Equipment: Solder Alpha Fry AT-31604 60-40 Rosin Core Solder (4 Ounces) Soldering Iron Tri-wing Screwdriver Phillips 00 Screwdriver Razor Blade (single edge) 70% Isopropyl Alcohol Check out the Gameboy Builder.

    Great!
  

*by S***T on Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2020*

A very nice screen.  It keeps the feel of the original DMG with a much clearer screen with perfect back lighting (at least for me, not super bright but strong enough to see well even in daylight).
