    Help!! Noob with 5v box mod with TI chip!!!

    Okay, sorry I went MIA. Mild emergency arose, but all's well know. Gummy, we had spaghetti for dinner, and you're all invited for the leftovers. It was yummy too!! :D I would love VV, but given the fact that I couldn't cram a hair off my head in the already crowed 2AA box, I guess I'm stuck...

    Help!! Noob with 5v box mod with TI chip!!!

    Okay, so I can try to read the writing on the blue cap, but it won't be until later this evening if that's alright. I'm anxious to get this fixed, but my duties as a multitasking mommy have to take a backseat to getting the kiddos fed, homework done, bathed and to bed. I'll be on again after 9pm...

    I'm so glad that there are friendly, knowledge people here to help me through this!!! Okay, so step one: Where do I get a blue thingy (capacitor~right?)? I'll be popping in and out for a little while as I'm cooking dinner, cleaning, and hoping to hop in the pool to cool off a little. LOL :D

    Help!! Noob with 5v box mod with TI chip!!!

    Ya know, I was just thinking, is it possible that they originally had the blue thing (cap) wired down where the loose wires are and then moved it? Should there be 2 caps in the box? Don't know anything about it, just a thought......

    We got the new WETBOX, it's on crazy discount, don't MISSY-OUT on it.

    If I may ask, what's the regular price of these? This may just push me to go ahead and place my order before the WEWT goes WAH!!! :D

    There is one loose red wire coming from under the chip and another wire (no color just bare) that sticks out also with some solder on it, but not connected to anything.

    Help!! Noob with 5v box mod with TI chip!!!

    I just got a soldering iron yesterday with some solder. Hubby and I want to try very simple box mods....not this complex to start!! LOL Okay, so I need to get another blue thing and then solder the loose wires to it? Where exactly do I solder these wires?

    Help!! Noob with 5v box mod with TI chip!!!

    It is glued in rather well (or epoxied) I will say that upon closer inspection, there's a wire coming up from underneath the chip with solder, but no connection to anything. There's also a red wire barely peeking out from under the chip as well and not connected to anything. My hubby pressed...
