With the first test i don't like the look and feel of the "inside micro-usb" connector for powering, and the big hole around it.
I bought a micro-usb magnetic cable for my phone and decide to try it on the gba.

As you can see it fit perfectly in the micro usb port, and go just outside the box.
I think it woulb be perfect if i can fill the gap around.
So i decide to use white "sugru"

I fill the gap and wait 24 hours to let it be harder.

I realize that the one i got from ebay is not protected. But i'm pretty sure it's genuine Sanyo. What are the types of risk?
Finally i had to replace the connector, poor quality, is not charging the gba properly.
I remove sugru, and add a new connector that i bought on amazon :

And the final result is ok for me, nice look, and easy to plug.

All of them can be made to work, but the protected ones are what we recommend (for safety). The protection makes them longer, and then they fit very tightly.
