Power led mod
« on: January 25, 2009, 10:08:16 AM »
I want to chandge the wifi/memstick & power/charge leds now would it be possible to do it like this.

use a pair of tweezer to take the normal leds off and simply use Soldier liquid (really stronge glue for metals) ok the base of the led and push it down where the led usaully goes?

Please give me some advice becuz i think this could work and would be alot better than using a soldiering iron for people who arnt steady handed

...I'm pretty sure you're referring to soldering paste, and soldering paste doesn't magically bond to things. You need to apply heat to make it set. Also, it's better to do the alternating-end method to remove the led, than just ripping it off.
