I actually do have it to suit WPC - just haven't assembled too many up yet. They do work very well I have to say, I have one installed in my BSD.

One issue with WPC is that almost all boards have the original RAM soldered in place which means removing it and fitting a socket - that can be a pain and is the main reason I haven't pushed this project.

Shown in my machine here (the chip below the EPROM with the white tape):




I just ordered a couple but to be used to replace Capcom "Zeropower" RAM eventually when needed. Haven't tried them in other games, but a good idea.

I suspect our own Homepin could produce the same thing.

How about it Mike?

Hey guys, new guy here $.$

Just wonding if anyone has tried the NVRAM adaptor instead of using batteries?

Any thoughts?  Just about to pick up my first pin  $#$ (a DESW) and considering this as an option to replace the batteries.

Cheers
