Weekly Project: Go Green GBA–A Solar-Powered Game Boy Advance



How many AA batteries does your Game Boy Advance eat during an average week of game play? Two, four, eight; well, next you’re going to appreciate that environmentally-friendly way of squeezing "free" game play out of the sun.



While it’s no secret that surplus solar-powered, rechargeable, portable Solar PAK (#GEGBASP) potential packs are readily available from reduction electronics parts stores, it is an unlucky fact that the bulk of them are DOA.

certain the solar panel functions as advertised, but more cases than not, the rechargeable battery pack is toast.



Revitalize that dead Solar PAK with a set of fresh, new NiMH batteries. In just a couple of months of average game play, your "green" GBA will have paid for itself.



Go Green GBA.
