Light up Thumbsticks? XB1
« on: March 08, 2015, 10:28:33 PM »
I have a pair of clear analogs and i'm wanting to make them light up. 

No switch or anything, just have it light up when the controller is on, and off when its off.

I'm kinda novice when it comes to the technical talk, but if i could see a + and - on a board, i could totally do it.

any help would be appreciated!

thanks.

Also?  i'm feeling like this forum is slowing down a bit...
Is there anything i can do to help?
I've been a Ghost User for years, and i feel like a complete idiot when i post, but if there's anything i can do to help, LMK.

TP9 is a 3.3v switch power source you can use. Don't go over 100mA or so with your current draw.  https://www.acidmods.com/forum/index.php/topic,43204.0.html

Screwing up is one of the best learning tools, so long as the only thing you're not learning is how to screw up.

Awesome!

I'll try that.

I usually use TP21 as a ground, is that good?

Thank you!

Any ground will do.
