okay...ive done my fair share of research and ive come to a conclusion...i WILL be putting lights in my DS Lite that has just been sitting around since the screen cracked. that too im going to fix in a couple days.
heres where my problem lies...i want to run a single turn potentiometer (from allelectronics.com) but dont know the ohm rating i should use...they have 500 ohms all the way up to 500k ohms. i plan on running about a dozen lights through it. is that too much? i will be having the corners lit up and the d pad and face buttons lit up, just so you know.
any help is greatly appreciated. cheers!
