connect your new flexi lights to the original light connections?
The one's that light up when the drive is running.
And use this to control the lights? [Only Registered Members May View Links| Click here to register]
I have modded my wii,, fitted a clear case and a wiisper fan and a wiikey2, all good and groovy,
i know the old fan power supply in the wii is 5v am i correct in assuming that if i get some flexable usb lights, fit them inside my case and connect them to the power supply for the old fan on my board, they will work?
of is the power supply regulated to fluctuate with the heat from the heat sync?
i am new to this scene, but have been modding consoles and systems for a very long timelol
any help would be helpful as i have just ordered some usb lights of ebay, if this works its a cheap way of iluminating your modded wii...
someone must have done this already if it is possible??
help anyone![]()

Nope..
using the onboard fan power supply outlet..
and my case didnt come with any lights inside it![]()
the slot you stick the games in (and your kids stick the toast/toys in) should have a 5v supply to the blue-flashy-led-lighty-thingy.Originally Posted by loftlex [Only Registered Members May View Links| Click here to register]
I wouldnt have thought that the supply to the fan is Thermo-regulated, ive never noticed any fan speed changes.

cool thats worth knowing,, but would it be possible to use the original power supply for the fan for running internal led's?
has anyone ever tried it?![]()
never tried it, but, theoretically, i cant see why not, if its a 5v supply it should/could/might work.Originally Posted by loftlex [Only Registered Members May View Links| Click here to register]

Slapping extra LEDs on the fan's supply could be problematic if the 5v supply is only just enough to run the fan. I know LEDs don't use much current but still.
