Eggstra Lilly +5V USB Mod (continued)


Now clip the legs close to the board so that they don't short out to the case.


Here's what the final, installed LM2596-5 looks like....before we bend it.


Now...very carefully...bend the LM2596 all the way around the board so that it ends up facing down, like this. Note the legs are FLAT on the top of the board. If you don't get them flat, there won't be enough leg left to make the bend. Be careful not to break a leg!


Now cut 2 red wires (#22GA stranded from Radio Shack) and 2 black wires (same) about 8 inches long and connect them to the original input and output holes on the Lilli PCB. Your unit should now look like this.
