can i do that? uh oh with the memory led...idk what i did...it blinks like hell

What are you talking about?

Hot glue shouldnt do that...

j.s2ghetto · « **Reply #3 on:** January 05, 2009, 08:04:14 PM »

if i am getting wat jumbo is hot glue shouldn't be conductive so ya u did something else maybe dropped solder somewhere u shouldn't have

I assume he was gluing down a wire so if you were careless you could've moved the wire bridging something.

I forgot that hot glue melts solder joints...

no i havent put glue yet........i scratched the little line, idk how its called ill put a video tomorow, its brighter then my 800 mcd white leds!I think

bustinthejustin · « **Reply #7 on:** January 05, 2009, 08:34:54 PM »

Did you cut the trace or scratch it? Did you solder anything to it?

armis · « **Reply #8 on:** January 05, 2009, 08:38:27 PM »

scratched a little i guess. when i soldered a wire to 5v point dark stuff was around it, i tried cleaning it up and prob scratched it. I actually like that its blinking very brightly

Sanctus · « **Reply #9 on:** January 05, 2009, 10:01:47 PM »

Then keep it like that.

And if his psp blows up ur responsible right LOL jk

but ya that might not be a good sign but who knows

alentris · « **Reply #11 on:** January 06, 2009, 05:31:26 AM »

You might melt the led if you're not careful.

armis · « **Reply #12 on:** January 06, 2009, 12:13:04 PM »

im scared that one day the psp will blow up!

SN!P3R · « **Reply #13 on:** January 06, 2009, 12:29:36 PM »

the mem stick led? you might have made contact with some one of the surrounding metal things (forgot the name

). i know that happened to me once, but it didnt blink. just stayed on continuously.

SN!P3R · « **Reply #15 on:** January 06, 2009, 12:48:10 PM »

DAMN thats bright. you mustve soldered the led to some copper surrounding the led. sesolder and this time dont make contact with the copper.

armis · « **Reply #16 on:** January 06, 2009, 12:53:45 PM »

nonono...i didnt try to swap the leds...i soldered a wire to 5v source the one in lordnico's tut. when i put solder on my flux became black and i tried to clean it any scratched the....... line?

Maybe you accidentally bridged the resistor.

where did you get the clear analogue stick

I think it's just white...

LaCozTe-2028 · « **Reply #20 on:** January 06, 2009, 01:42:07 PM »

nope its clear white doesent let light shine through like a clear analogue

Well clear analogues for the slim don't exist unless you make your own. And that looks like its just light shining ON it.

bustinthejustin · « **Reply #22 on:** January 06, 2009, 01:58:22 PM »

That's just light shining on it. And I think you probably did bridge the resistor. Just unsolder it and retry. That 5v point is a

to solder to. Especially without flux.

if there is no problems with it being bright ill leave it...
the nub is clear =]
