Request: LED mod my psone screen?

Sweebez · Post by **Sweebez** » Wed Aug 02, 2006 10:05 am

A year and a half ago, i bought a psone screen from Gamestop or somewhere like that, and attempted the LED mod. Needless to say, it was a horrifying experience, filled with little pops and smoke everywhere. Assuredly, my soldering skills are much better, but i still dont want to risk doing it again.

Here's my challenge/offer:

Anyone who lives either IN ohio, or relativly close to ohio can try to mod this screen. After I find the best experienced (and hopefully cheapest) offer, I'll announce it here. Then, the winner can either buy materials before hand and tell me how much it cost, or they may send the invoice back with the screen. Shipping will be covered both ways, so I'm kind of hoping the modder will live close

...

Any offers? I can arrange for a lame prize if need be.

i've done the best LED mod i've ever seen but i can't find my dremel. if i can find it i'll take the job. i can do 3,4, or 6 LEDs. 6 LEDs would be a bit more expensive though because it's more LEDs and harder to fit in the light box.
3-4 LEDs : $10 + shipping
6 LEDs : $15 + shiping
i could bargain down the prices if they're too high but these seem reasonable since i do good/bright LED mods. do you want it in the case or not? it'd be easier not in the case but if you want it in i could probably make it work.
here's an example of my 6 LED mod

you can put me on hold until i find my dremel.

daguy's offer has been noted. What's your zip?
Does the 6 led mod wash out the colors? I'd prefer to be on the safe side with 4.

Note to all: The Psone must be able to fit in the case.

Any other offers?

zip- 63011
it doesn't wash out the colors unless you do the brightness mod and look at it from an upwards angle and i'm sure 4 LEDs would not wash out at all.

I have a question. Can I just send the lcd screen and mobo? That weighs only 5 lbs as compared to the 12 lbs i would have to pay to send the unopened psone screen.

yeah that'd be fine. just don't send it yet, my dremel must have grown legs and walked away

NOTE TO ALL:

Daguuy can not find his dremel, so his deal is off.

Is anyone else intrested?
Remember, all costs are covered,
and a lame prize CAN be arranged for!
