Technical information about the Robcom TurboTool+ & Monitor:

It is possible to build your own Robcom TurboTool+ & Monitor cartridge replica with the information in the link below.

If you build a Robcom TurboTool+ & Monitor cartridge replica with this information, it is on your own risk. But if you are successful in building a replica, let me know!
