LLAMMA has finished an interesting LED mod for the psp consisting of placing LEDs in each trigger button and the center of the D-pad and face buttons. The LED’s are powered by the PSP’s battery and they turn off automatically when your PSP gets low on power.

Tools Needed

*000 Phillips Screw Driver

*Low wattage (15-20) Quality Solder Iron or variable temperature Solder Station

*X-Acto or other blade for stripping/scratching off the insulation on the wire

*Small Tweezers

*5/64 Drill bit and drill

Supplies Needed

*30AWG Magnet Wire (enamel coated) (NOT 30AWG Kynar)

*0603 SMD LED’s

*10 Ohm Resistor for 4 blue

I really like the idea of personalising PSP's, but i don't have the guts to take my PSP apart.

Get the face plate on there and that would look hot. I'd like to do it to my PSP, but I don't feel like screwing up.

yall are funny.

i like the led's.

but i dont think i would have done the shoulder buttons. The faceplate has to happen while your at it too, so the clear one is the way to go, the LED's spread nice throughout it. Scary though. soldering and unsrcrewing what is already being undone by my everyday useage. I held a brand new PSP and it felt so solid compared to mine, I know im putting in work on it. Scary to undo it even more..

Is there only one of this mod or does anyone else have one done? Post the pic...
