Finally a good Vid SUBBED can you make one for start back buttons and abxy please?

[TheRewinded]

thank god for people like you im gonna do this on my ps3 controller

[Z3ROGAMINGZ]

i subscribed to you now can you tell me if i were removing my smd and solder got on to the power point where the led goes will the solder ruin the connection to that point?(NEVER SOLDERED LOOKING TO MOD MY CONTROLLER SOON)

[trisgriffin]

does it matter what kind of rosin core solder you use? because I have 60/40 .03.

[KrazyPilot422]

as long as it's thin enough to not cover the LED with solder, it really doesn't matter what kind you use. as long as it's rosin core, which is best for electronics.

[valkin07]

solder is solder and if you are concerned try no to waste the solder that is on it.

[LuisGomez54]

are you using a paperclip as solder, or do you have to buy a special type of metal to use?

[igetblumkins]

its called solder wire not a paper clip.

[cris2900]

No Solder is easier to melt

[rtljmc]

why wud u do that?

[butteredmuffins0]

to put different colors in

[igetblumkins]

lol he even said is was putting new ones in at the end lol

[TheFBomb0430]

Does the size of the solder matter

[XDproXD]

you would want to use a thinner one only because you dont need that much

[Nintendogene]

Should I be worrying about the motherboard getting burned using a 25 watt? I heard others that you have to use <=17 watt solder.

[imknownasthetank]

can you tell me where i can buy those led bulbs at?

[UrFriend00]

Can you show how the cirrcut board looks like after you take the LEDs off. I took them off, but I not sure I did it right. Thanks.

[croatia1950]

how big are the led

[DeAthZReApEr760]

Does any kind of soldering iron work?

Would a 30 or 40 watt work?

[jesse112357]

you need to use a 25 or less because it

could burn your motherboard

[evilboy456]

u can install new led's after u took the old ones off, right?

[Jordancriscione09]

did you watch the video

[mxking118]

hi, i have been wanting to add blue LED's to my console and controller for a while. but i have yet to find a place to get them from. is the only place to get them online? and also will places like gamestop or any game store install the LED's for you or you on your own on them. because me and elc. is not so good.... i would mess the controller up. or is it fairly simple?
