Eachine EV800D FPV Goggles Battery Mod - Adding an external battery 

when soldering, the hand with the soldering iron don't let your hand hover in mid-air, rest it on the table. this makes ur hand steady and makes it a lot easier to solder. i learnt that the hard way

So basically buy a jst 1.25 to whatever adapter, run external and play. Sounds super easy. I only say adapter because my hobby shop is a couple blocks away and makes any connections you request on site

I recommend adding kapton tape to entire back of the screen. The back of the screen looks like thin-steel or aluminum, and it's is conductive. One youtuber demonstrated in his battery mod video that this metal back is charged at something like 5v, so it causes bad interference if the screen touches the circuit board. (It was happening to me.) Yeah, so about 2 or 3 single layer pieces of kapton tape did the trick! (depending on the width of the tape. I think I have a roll of 2" wide kapton.) I hope this helps someone!

thanks for that , i have just managed to break off my micro usb charging connector on my Makerfire VR goggles - this will be a much better (upgrade ) option than to repair /replace the little port . 👍😁

Awesome job Hugh. Nice and clean mod. Stop the rattle just add a tiny piece of two sided foam tape. But this is still a great mod left a like and enjoyed watching

Well done Hugh. An excellent video about your goggles battery mod. Excellent tips re the electrical work. Thank you for sharing my friend.

i dont have them goggles hugh .but it was still very intresting to watch . u did a great job .. very informative .. and they should work way better .great job my friend

Can i still use the integrated battery? There is no balamce lead to the 2s?

That's very cool. Those are they same goggles I have. The battery indicator is very unreliable so I usually end up using an external battery anyway. I might as well follow this video and remove the internal battery to make these goggles lighter. Thanks, Hugh.

Great video Hugh 👏

Great Video, got mine working however when I have my sd card in the goggles after adding the external battery my goggles switch off, then if i take out my sd card it works fine, had anyone else had this problem?

Real nice tutorial Hugh 😎

Thank you for this video, it helped me a lot, but I haven’t found the wire pack, could you share a link for buying them?

What external battery max do you recommend whit this mod? 2s 3s or 4s? Thanks

Thats a great mode Hugh. Awesome job.

I did this mod with 18650s and my goggles cutout at 7.4v not sure what the deal is.

Nice job 👍🏽

Nice one

Hey anyone know how to fix the recording videos and know why the video that I replay after a flight why its skipping and not getting good video like its skipping when I review the video not when I'm flying everything perfect except the video recorder

Holy sh^t biscuits LOL

Hi, I'm about to do the mod bcs the stock battery is bad and it discharges in like 10 min. Can you please recommend the right Lipo battery to attach? I got a XT60 connector. I need the battery to provide power for about 1 hour.

Hey everyone, i'm looking for doing this mod but i don't know witch battery i have to use. I have a 3s 2400mAh battery but i don'k know if it will work with that. Can you tell me witch battery I have to us ? Thanks

Wow great idea. Can I also direct the power to a power bank supply instead of a lipo?

Nice I wonder if that would work on my Virucks

Hi, can I use 3s lipo for this?

Does anyone know if the helmet supports 4s battery?

Can it handle 2s lipo or lithium batteries?

what external battery do you recommend? whats the minimum C rating or does that not matter.
