is 60 watt an option?
i get them for 12 at work and they work great for desoldering the controller ports on n64/psone

K im not sure about the soldering iron, but Im still looking for a screen... would this one work?
PSOne Screen

That's way too expensive.
Try this.
It has the same internals as a PSone or PSX screen, and will only need a bit of wiring.

That screen will definetly be the one I will be ordering thanks for the input on that

I figure this case should be large enough for my psXP Pro (Might be the name of my portable) but I'll have to wait and see the final depth, I estimate .75" clearance with my disc drive already on the back of the motherboard and the controller built into the front already (not connected to the mo-bo but all set to get connected to the case) and I should be good with this case.

I got my PTH08000WAH from Texas Instruments in the mail today, For FREE!
I just have to wait to get a battery and my screen but as I'm getting paid today that shouldnt be a problem, but what battery should I get?
