Cathode lights usually last over 10k hours.

Thanks for the update. I ordered some LED's and expect them sometime next week. I guess I will start with the 22-ohm first.

Thanks, the site seemed to work well and verified my calculations.
It recommended a 22-ohm resistor.

I guess that is my answer, but if anyone used a 10-ohm resistor and followed that tutorial, I am curious to know if your LED's are still alive.

I will buy a few 10's just in case.

"the 3 LED's are running off of pin 1 (+) and pin 2 (-) with a however many ohm resistor (The pack came with 7.2V resistors."

From this sentence, it seemed like you just bought a pack of resistors and used one, regardless of rating. Sorry if I misunderstood.

I was reading the extreme-tech guide on modding the PSOne screen to use LED's.

The part that is getting to me is the resistor it says to use, which is a 10-ohm resistor.

Is that the guide everyone uses, and were there any problems ...

Is the pack specifically for the PSOne screen mod? What voltage are the LED's rated at, and what are the resistor colors?

If you are using the wrong resistor, the LED's might not be getting full power.

Maybe it's not a portable. Maybe, he did just the opposite and made a multi-console arcade cabinet mod!!!!!

What about Willy Wonka and the Chocolate factory. I can't believe they are making it into a comedy...

gah, boy is my face red. I popped open my DC and the sync wire must have cracked off. It is working now

Hello, I am trying to get my Dreamcast to work on my psone screen, but am having some trouble with the video. The screen stays on, but is always black.

You should also know that I am pretty new to this.

Anyways, I made a psone portable with a cardboard box case, and now want to take the screen out ...

no no, he means I am not using a proxy

actually it was me. I didn't mean to offend anyone, just a little joke.

And I sometimes forget to sign, that is why I was a guests

or ou can get a modchip to remove the green

a mobo + xp2600 combo is like $100. I would not get anything under 1500mH personally. I would browse prices online first. The last PC show I went to were asking for less than instore price, but more than online retailer price.

oh poo, i regret buying the psone a couple months ago now. At least the screen was included in the $80 deal. I can use that. Now all I need is 150 smackers
