PSP Mod: light-sensitive LEDs
And this makes it three. PSP modder PvP (aka Tony Hoang) over at AcidMods has apparently been kicking it into overdrive lately, as he informs us of another project that’s just been completed. This new mod will ensure that any onboard LEDs mods will only activate under low-light conditions and won’t turn on (and drain your battery) when it’s bright.
As PvP explained, this was done by wiring the LEDs to a light-sensitive PCB before hooking them up to a power PCB. The sensor is taken from a light-sensitive night light – PvP used the one to the right – which should be readily available in stores. The mod has been described as easy to duplicate and will require the following materials:
- PSP
- LEDs
- IDE cable wires or very thin wires
- Soldering iron
- Solder
- Light-sensitive nightlight ($1.50 at a thrift store)
Full install instructions are available at the AcidMods site, provided at the Read link below. There aren’t any videos of images available for the mod at the moment – we’ll let you know if PvP decides to update with these items.
