George ★★★★★

Got this kit specifically because it covers the main, sound, and power PCBs in one shot—no hunting for missing pieces. Every cap was labeled clearly and matched what I needed for the VA4 board. Took about an hour to swap them all and the screen finally holds a steady image.

George ★★★★★

Brought my old Game Gear back to life—each cap fit the main and sound boards perfectly. Took about an hour to install everything, and now the screen’s stable with no flickering.

Victoria ★★★★★

The kit covered every board I needed—main, sound, and power—so I didn't have to hunt for missing caps. After soldering them in, the screen flicker stopped and the audio came through clean, exactly what I hoped for.
