Description:

Power on your retro Game Boy with a premium replacement on / off power slider switch flex PCB, compatible with Nintendo Game Boy Advance consoles.

A replacement power switch can fix some power issues often caused by corrosion or failure of the on/off switch.

This premium version comes with the switch pre-soldered to an ultra thin PCB flex with stiffener, giving you the easiest possible install thanks to the close contact between the flex PCB solder pads and the solder points on the mainboard.

No console modification is needed to use this part, the switch flex PCB aligns with all of the original solder points where the original switch is removed from.

Once the switch is installed it will be in the correct position for the plastic power slider button to operate the switch.

Requires basic soldering to install, the switch comes pre-mounted to the Flex PCB, the Flex PCB solder pads must be soldered to the console motherboard in place of the old Switch.

Note: Color may vary.

Great. Works as intended

Waste of money

I purchased this in hopes that it would be a suitable power switch replacement than other third party parts of the same type. It does line up perfectly with the board's solder pads, but the outer plastic that houses it is (just below the metal lid that gets soldered to the board) very brittle. I ordered three of these toggles, and every last one had crumbling plastic during normal use, which resulted in the toggle partially sliding out of its housing. And because the strip of metal that makes contact with the board isn't attached to the toggle, it's impossible to get a proper connection once it's out.
