I got a Sega nomad yesterday with the led screen mod. I cant take it out with me on the go because I don't have the battery pack for it. It has to stay at home with an electrical outlet nearby in order to play it. It's cool though.

Very nice. It is good to see those older handhelds can be retrofitted with moderns screens and batteries. Makes them closer to how we envisioned them as keeps  |

Congratulations! That LCD screen will be more energy efficient than the old screen, but are you sure there's no modern-day, upgraded battery pack for it somewhere?

lukefonfabre388, are you planning on modding an old battery pack for modern use? I've seen a few videos on how to do this a few years ago, and it doesn't seem like it is that hard of a DIY project. If you do, it would be great to see your handy work. I love seeing old tech get retrofitted for the modern era. Did you do the LED upgrade yourself?

Actually no I bought it from someone at a convention and it already had the led mod done to it. I've never tried to mod anything before but I really do want to learn how to solder. He said it was region free too but im not sure if it is because I don't have any imported genesis games to try out on it. I think I will order the battery pack for it so I can play it portably. I love the d-pad on this thing its great.

I got my battery pack in for my Sega nomad today. It wasn't cheap but now I can play it anywhere.
