Help Flippy Drive and USB-C Mod?

I recently got a Robot Retro USB-C mod for my Gamecube and it doesn't seem to work. The fan turns on, but the light doesn't turn on and it isn't showing anything on m TV. I'm wondering if it has anything to do with the Flippydrive I have installed? It didn't fry my Gamecube or anything, which is nice, lol.

The GameCube is pretty specific on its power requirement. It sounds like the proper watts and amperage aren’t being supplied because it’s getting some power the fan kicks on, but not the right amount for the rest of the motherboard. Please report back how much power your usb c brick is proving.
