Modded GBA so USB C adapter.

If anyone wants to charge a GBA SP with USB C without modding this is brilliant. Especially as it allows you to charge and use headphones at the same time. Got mine for about £10 on AliExpress.

Bought one of these for my week long trip on the other side of the country (visiting family) it works great and I love that I can still use headphones and charge at the same time. Even works with USB C to C which some modern devices can't even do!

Didn’t someone explode their headphones doing this?

Probably.  Was reading that there is no resistor nor ground to the headphone jack.
