Hi, I have a question. I want to do the Arcade mod on my vci, but I don't know what diodes I have to use.

I used standard rectifiers, 1N4001. They cost me a grand total of 79 cents for ten.

Could you write down some characteristics or so? I mean, I can't do anything with "1N4001".

Did you type it into Google?
