Hello there, and welcome to my first tut o__o
Well I guess some of you have seen the video of my PSP with the Fader, and well here is the tutorial on how to do it, it's really easy, don't worry
Supplies:
- PSP (or a Toaster)
- A Fader PCB from www.sickmods.net (http://www.sickmods.net) ( LED Fader Deluxe )
- Some kynar wire in different colors would be helpful too
- Advanced Solder skills ( You will need to solder on the MoBo)
Wireing the Fader:
Probably the easiest part off all.
Wire your LED Fader like this:

And this is how it should look like in real:

Well that was it, you are done with setting up the Fader, wasn't that hard, eh?
Wireing up the MoBo
I don't have muhc to say at this part, since it's just soldering 2 wires, at the same spot like at the Music Pusle Mod, so those people who already did this, can use their existing wires to make the Fader work.

Finish it!
Now you should have 2 wires left unsoldered, they are probably from the S1 and S2 spot from the fader, with those you can change the modes of your Fader. You can either solder them to a switch, or solder them to a Ground point, so the Modes are not changeable.

Placing it?
Under the Wifi board folks ;D, I put mine close to the Headphone jack, not at the very right, it wouldn't close then, alittle more to the left, then it should close flawless.
Thank you for reading, boot up your PSP and hope you don't have any shorts, and enjoy your Fading LEDs ^_^

Any that have to do with this mod, also, do you personally know of any other place to get these boards? I want to ensure this mod is accessible to anyone that wants to do it.

Well,damn I don't have many pictures because I was pretty much done after a short time. That are all I have.

As for other spaces, nah I really couldnt fit it anywhere else, over the Wifi doesnt work, the hole in the right under the Powerboard isnt enough, tell me another spot to store a Board.
-
That's fine, I can work with it, I hope you don't mind if I edit it, just to make sure everyone will understand it, if I have to.

I'm fine with that, it was my first tut ever anyway

ohh man, that is crazy! if the chips wernt $20, i would do it for sure, maybe i can find some fakes somewhere that stull work, kinda like the wiikey
-
They are 10$

Am adding the tut to the Wiki now, and was wondering if you have a picture of the placement of the PCB, since pictures say a thousand words...
-
thats pretty :censored:ing cool
-
Pretty coo man just a couple questions. So this is like the music sound mod but just with fading LEDs instead? Also gonna make a tut for when you add a switch so you can have all the diff LED settings?
-
The pictures to show what goes where are gone. If you could put them back up it would be appreciated, because I am currently trying to do this mod and I need those pictures to know where to connect the wires. Thanks in advance :beg: :tup:
-
go to fader.sickmods.net (http://fader.sickmods.net) and it says

hey fufa i got the mod all wired up but i can't find the swicth what kind di you use and where might i find it???
-
the other question i have is where where do i wire up the leds and i should be able to wire up 6 rightthe + leads off of h1 i believe right. and finally where do i wire the grounds to?? i just wanna be sure.. if you know what i mean.

First of all, don't double post.
Second of all, the switch I used was just a normal SMD DIP Switch, you can find them on ebay or maybe even your local hardware store, you don't need any special type, if you want to turn your fader on/off, if you want more than that, you need a 3 way dip swtich (If I remember correctly).
You can find out where to wire up your LEDs by reading my tutorial...
Also you can wire your LEDs to the - on the Mobo, the - on the Fader and on the big gold spaces on your MoBo where the screwholes for the LCD Cage are.

I'm curious why no one has done this mod with a 12f629 pic? They cost like $3ea, need only 3 wires, and take up a whole lot less room than the Sickmods fader.
-
just to make sure the switch you used will control both modes on the fader right? and lastly thnx for all your help :tup:
-
Resistors? Do you need to use them in this mod. Are the led fader takes care of the amount of power going to the leds.

No resistors needed.

No resistors needed.
:tup: yes less soldering! thanks fufa

After hours of sleep time for this mod, i am at the point where i need to make it fade. Could i just take the s2 a solder it to the power board switch? If so which pin would it be? Thanks!
-
never mine i got it to work
