XBOX DuoX 2 Lite
[156]

There are different ways to connect the DuoX 2 Lite to the main board, first is wire and second is direct to the board using a header pin which comes with the chip. I found that the header is the easiest because you install the header, then the chip slides into the header, so your aren’t soldering too much onto the DuoX 2 Lite chip. For the 1.6 consoles use the header and the 1.6 rebuild PCB for fastest and best results.

{Warning}
There are clones of the DuoX 2 Lite chips in the market place now. We only sell the Official "Team Omega" range of Duo chips. There are a couple of ways to spot a clone DuoX 2 Lite chip.

1. The price. if it sounds to good to be true, it probably is.
2. The faulty rate, DuoX 2 Lite clones have a 1 in 5 faulty rate.
3. Smudges in the printing of "AMD" on the ram.
4. It's called DuoX 3, Team Omega have not produced a Duo X 3

Another great feature is, if you don’t want to add switches to your case, the DuoX 2 Lite mod makes use of the buttons already on the Xbox. If you turn the Xbox on with the power button, the mod chip will be activated and boot to your homebrew dashboard, but if you switch on the Xbox using the eject button, then the DuoX 2 Lite will be deactivated and will boot to the standard ms dashboard (so you can use Xbox Live)! This feature is added with the soldering of an extra cable from the chip to the power/eject button board, the wire is included.

It plays original imports and back-ups of originals, plays unsigned code. You can run debug executables, has no-patch hack 1 & 2, it deactivated macrovision, supports 137 GB+ HDDs. It auto detects EvoX dashboard, and the flash is upgradeable.

Altogether, its a chip is filled with features that even developers can make use of, its upgradeable as time goes by, it’s affordable and reliable. With the DuoX making use of the Xbox power/eject buttons in place of external switches it’s great if you regularly use Xbox Live!.
