  • How many volts must the LEDs be? for wired and wireless.

  • @RazorX313X Wired gives out 5V, wireless (AA batteries) 3V and wireless (rechargeable) 2.4V.

    Choose LEDs appropriate for the voltages. Check out LEDcalc to help

  • I've honestly looked all over the internet and I cant find where to put the power and ground points for the wired controller. I know they are in ur video but i cant see the first power one. I looked at the links in ur description and the wired one from llama has the controller flipped over backward or something. Is there anyway you could find or upload a picture in ur description just saying "this" point is power and "this" point is ground for a wired controller.

  • @SHORTxSTEPS on Llamma, there's a * XBOX 360 Controller Power Points * topic. The third picture down is what you want. Look at the points right in the middle of the controller. where that chrome-looking thing is.

  • Wouldn't the glue cover up the light

  • @SHORTxSTEPS Well, most hot glue is fairly clear. And it's good to diffuse the light a bit.

  • @joemoses911 where do you have to install the resistors

  • I did everything on here and like you told me before to solder to this points in the middle and I did but when I plug it in, nothing on the controller works. When I unsoldered them and plugged it in everything would work like the ring of light. I did this on a brand new wired controller sooooo you got any ideas why this would happen and how to fix it?

  • i like how he didnt use any resistors.. people if you are doing this in a wireless controller make sure you have a 22Ohm resistor. you will pop your LED other wise.

  • @0M4rs0 Thanks Bro! I will use this for as Reference when I get my LEDs.
