    Picked up both of these from your etsy shop! Thanks for supporting the community! Would you consider making a video of the start/select button install for the pocket?

      Thanks! The install for the GBP start/select buttons is pretty similar to the wired install for the GBC equivalent. Only difference is the need to install the diode array, since the board is only available unpopulated on OSHPark.

      @@leggomyfroggo I'm going to give it a shot! You posted a pic on Instagram with that STSL board installed. You ran a wire from P15 to another P15 on a replacement A/B board. I don't see that on the tactile button mod. Would I run that wire to the P15 via on the MGB board? Hopefully that makes sense.

      Hey man. I want to get hold of these but it's no longer available. Will you bee putting them back up anytime soon.

    it would be cool if someone was able to make a membrane set that removes the domes, so basically solid rubber to keep the button height, but allow direct actuation of the tac switch with less travel. Could just glue some risers to the black contacts maybe.

    Great video! I've been looking for a way to add an indicator light to my MGB that has none. Can you confirm if this is compatible with the CleanJuice Air battery pack?

    Hey Froggo, are you planning on having these back in stock soon? I have these mods on my GBC and just ordered a Pocket that I would like to mod as well

    Man, this is exactly what I'm looking for for my MGB build. Any idea when the battery indicator will be restocked?

      Should be in about two weeks! Sold out faster than expected, so waiting on new parts.

    Great video! Is there a way to have for example red light for full battery and then no light at all when battery is low or vice versa?

      Thanks! This mod has two LEDs, one for good battery, and another different color for low battery. Not demonstrated here, but you can see it demonstrated in my videos for the GBC version!
