My friend gave me a ps1 slim the other day also, I was going to do a black and red color scheme thing on mine, but what would be cool on your would Im not sure if this would work or not but you could MAke a ring of lights all the way around the flip top cover thing, And make them like sound reactive somhow? or somthin like that would be prettty cool

well if you have a ps1 slim or phat you could try to put a mod chip to get a nes emulator working

lol i have a code for the 12f629 to install inside a ps1 as a modchip.

El Wire is a thin cord that acts like a light when power is applied to it.

EL Wire = Electro Luminescent Wire

Yes it is bright... But El Wire was used in the new tron movie for the lights on the costumes. So yes it is bright.
