Two of the most famous mods for the Dreamcast are replacing the battery [1] and installing the GDEMU (which will make the console's PSU run too hot, so you have to either insert some resistors [2] or remove the 12v from the PSU's board [3]).

 

The problem is that the battery and the 12v regulator are small components and very easy to lose, that's why I made this compartment, so the components can be safely stored inside your console and never get lost.

 

This compartment is meant to be glued on the side of the GDEMU mount that is commonly sold on Aliexpress, but it can probably fit on other 3D printable mounts (I know for sure it fits on this mount https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1585333). I used superglue to glue it to the mount.

 

I made 3 different models, one with 2 divisions, that you can store the regulator and the battery, and 2 smaller models, one for storing only the regulator and another for just the battery. Each model has 2 stl files, one for the body and one for the lid, the filenames indicate which is which.

 

PS: The upper part of the Dreamcast's case has some pins, and the one indicated in the image can conflict with the installation of the compartment. So, when gluing the compartment, either position it at the center, slightly to the right of the mount, or don't position it too high, otherwise you won't be able to close your console's case.

 

As always, I've made available the .f3d files, so anyone can easily make any adjustments they want to the models :)
