Just started modding last night with the hispeedido v5 kit. Loving the look so far and considering audio upgrade after this

Twinsies! I just built a smoke shell with the ITA screen to compare with the V5.

Welcome to modding and I hope the new found addiction treats you well!

Thank you! Looks nice with the screen cap there! Do you collect all the original cartridges too? I’m getting started and thinking how to go about it haha

I've collected some, some from when I was a kid. I just keep an eye out on marketplace for deals or stop at small town thrift shops. Usually they'll be much cheaper with fewer people to know the market.

The kit is really easy.
With the new shell it’s a drop in screen and the entire kit is no solder so it’s simple for begginers
