Glowy cool


Sometimes you win, sometimes you fail. In my case: making posts here at QJ.net. With Everett: making PSP mods. This mod by Everett is a definitely a win.

Take out your toolkit folks! Everett has this wicked cool mod for your PSP that can make those boring transparent shoulder buttons light up. This isn't your light-up-all-the-time glowy blue buttons mod, That's sort of 2-3 months old already. Everett's mod allows for the shoulder buttons to light up when pushed. Below are a few random screens of him working on the mod. As the danger of you ruining your PSP is sort of obvious, we strongly advise you do proceed with this only if you are confident with your soldering/drilling "skillz."

A Simple mod if done well, I did the one posted up a could of months ago, but instead of wireing up to the Power LED, i wired it up to the Memory Stick Access LED, so they flash when the Memory Stick gets accessed.

I used Red LEDs instead of Blue

But i must say, you must have a knack for soldering, coz its damn hard
