That is pretty cool! Wouldn't be bothered so much by the A button but the four LEDs at the bottom look awesome.

 

Shame I know that I'll never be arsed or want to risk fucking up my wiimote to actually attempt this :(

"Each kit is enough for 1 remote with spare LEDs or 2 kits would be enough for 3 if no mistakes are made."

 

Lol, this guy was obviously using precision soldering methods. Not.

However, I would never hurt my Wiimotes.

 

But I would!! Hand them over!!

 

I would love to try modding some wii-motes, I do have an a level in electronics.. But would I be able to pull it off so well.

I wouldnt say there is anything difficult about the task if you are a dab hand with a soldering iron. Your a-level probably over qualifies you.

The problems will come when the soldering iron tip is too big or heat is applied to the circuit board too long.

Things I'd be worried about would be messing up the sensor circuitry and thus wasting £30. And the finish, whether I could get it all fit in properly, without looking at the insides of a Wii-remote first I wouldn't attempt it. Maybe one day when the wii-remotes are cheaper and easily found I'll give it a whirl.

Wise move...Personally I wouldnt start touching any of it till the warranty dies even though leds are childs play....Then I would have to be pretty bored,

On the subject of screwing up the sensors, I have a feeling they are more robust than than ppl trust judging by those early stories of wii mote damage.

I would, but I worry for screwing it up. It's pretty cool, but I say that about alot of mods I'd never do cos I suck with electronics kind of. I'd feel like I'd have violated my wii somehow too, which sounds real stupid.

I'd love to see the guy who tries and screws it up try to take it back to the shop 'So...er...it just changed colours overnight...'
