Sure Ill do an overview on how I did it and show what it looks like. I have some footage of removing the port but not of putting it on, Ill see what I can put together for you. This wasn't that hard to fit due to port size and motherboard layout, I didn't even have to fully disassemble it to install. Love my DS lite. Should be up tonight or tomorrow.
ua-cam.com/video/ApOma3-A3_8/v-deo.html Here you go Hope that helps. Its not too difficult to do the hardest part is removing the port. I will upload the footage I have of doing that part next just to have it uploaded.
That's cool! I would really want to do this with my DSi and New 3DS XL. The proprietary cables for those consoles are getting harder to find, plus in my region, I also need to use a transformer to not fry my consoles. It's inconvenient to carry all of that if i want to play outside.
Yeah Nintendo had a habit of making a new charger for each new console. I have a video up of a dsi xl that I did should be the same as a normal dsi. I have a regular dsi laying around that I'll make a video on next. Yeah using USB C ports makes it easy to get power especially overseas that way its just DC to DC instead of AC to DC.
ua-cam.com/video/JLbUZXD4MCw/v-deo.html This is what you want to do, something like this maybe take a bit more time to make it look cleaner. Long video showing a raw look at how I did it should be uploaded at noon Chicago time.
Thats one thing with USB C, most cables have a gap since phones are usually more recessed. I will try pushing it back more to compensate. I do see what you are saying. Thanks for the feedback, I will try that on the next one I do, Just finished a DSI mod so it will have to be the next thing I try not that one. Did that one the same way port flush with the outside.
Could you make a video of how you made this change? I would like to do it on mine

That looks really well done
Thanks, the shape of the original port makes this mod pretty easy to not look hacked up. DSI models...well they are square and usb c is not.
I hate how the charger kind of sticks out a bit when it's plugged in to the DS. Still a really awesome mod though, not having to use the old cables 😂

nothing like charging your DS Lite with your powertool batteries 🤣
Haha yeah those little ryobi power inverters come in handy, just an easy way to show it can charge via power delivery c to c.
