Modding game systems and such...
Well my friend and I recently got into this hobby.
We order LEDS, resistors, and such off the computer...and mod our gaming systems.
I have a green LED in my controller...a green one in my memory card..and i have my PS2 cutout on the top..with blue LEDs all around it.
Here are pics.
WEll I cant find the pics of my memory card...but I will get them up in a few.
ENJOY

I haven't done any game systems but have modded several computers.

The discs I'm buying do the same thing, except are $20 each.
If i decided to get a Mod Chip..I'm sure I could fit it properly without damage..considering my friend and I soldered all of these parts fine. THe wiring is crazy.

All those lights in your system look great, but have you done anything to further increase ventilation within the system? I ask this becasue I would be concerned about the heat these lights produce. Though it may seem insignificant, I would be afraid that the heat produced by these lights in what is already a minimally cooled system would raise the temps beyond desirable levels. Have you had any problems with the system heating up and/or overheating after prolonged use?
I am only asking these questions becuase I have found that the sony systems (I have PS1 and PS2) to be fairly flighty in terms of long term performance. The systems rarely work properly after 3+ years of heavy use even with regular maintenance.
Don't get me wrong, I am a Playstation guy more than anything, but I have noticed that the systems seem to have a best before date.

Unless they're run at a higher than specified voltage LED's give off negligible heat. Even if they're running hot they don't give off anything close to the heat the CPU in the system gives off
