DS Misc > Curious about those other things in battery compartment

#70863 - Mr. Picklesworth - Thu Feb 09, 2006 4:41 am

Do we know if those two other metal things in the DS's battery compartment serve any purpose?
Since they are both completely exposed, there must be some obvious reason for them which I am missing...

They are exposed, but it is best not to touch these, as they are LCD voltage level adjustment controls. Essentially, the average voltage on the lcd over time should be around 0. Adjusting these controls requires training/speciallized equipment. Leave them alone.
