[Noodles48]

This is a WIP. Went to radioshack to pick up some white LEDs for this but then i saw some 7-color changing ones and thought why not try them out, i think it look pretty bad Here is a video of me testing it out on the Y button. Stupid radioshack only had 2 in stock so ill be finishing tomorrow and posting another video of it all put together. What do yall think of it?

thats why im glad that it requires the button to change the modes, if i dont want it i can just turn it off

good lol i would break the controller within the first 5min if i didnt have that button lol. Good Job hope to see it when the controller is complete.

Look good man, can't wait to see all 4 buttons lit up.

I do love it it's just that I think it would look so much better with clear buttons. Because you can't see all the colours

Thats looking good, I had modded a controller by installing that same 7-color LED in the Xbox guide button and it looks sweet.

what did you do to make it chane modes and how did you wired your led?

[Noodles48]

well radioshack got lazy and didnt had any instructions so i had to read some and guess some until i got it to work. the way you get it to change modes is by adding a tact button that between the two outside pins which are both negative (one is dedicated negative which is the one with the 90 degree bend, the other is a control has the 45 degree angle) the center pin is a positive.when you first add power to it will go into a 10 sec demo mode which goes through the modes. then you press the tact again and it will go to a solid color then press the button again and it will turn off and repeat. I noticed when i attached it to my mobo that it wouldnt allow me to change modes untili put the negs on 2 different ground points.

Cool Very crafty by the way lol.

Just finished working on my controller and got it all working and awesomeness!! Pain in my  to remember which neg wire goes to the control and so on haha

Wohh man!! this looks great!!! 

[Monk3y]

Looks amazing, only thing that I think would have made it better is if they were synced together and not like flashing all randomly, that's just my opinion though ^_^

[Noodles48]

I agree with ya but this is the first time working with there LEDs and i just kinda slapped it all together last night then quit since i was tired as hell!!  so later today im going to get back on it and see if there is a way to get them to go all together.
