    ya well i think the yellow idea might be shot i dunno...cuz ive been thinkin bout red...some of the products i found only come with red...annd they are lil too intracite to be messin with the LED...so i know they have a red filter...but it doesnt do anything...so i guess a florecent red (not pink) to change it to red ? or a red film directly ON the VFD?

    this is so good man.

    Is it possible to wire a 3pin fan into a jack, then the in-jack to the rheobus?

    :jawdrop: WOW! I wondered what your new avatar was. This is so cool! Looks so high-tec with all the braided cables and chrome shiny bits. I need to go and change my underwear :eyebrow:

    This is to be one of the greatest mods I've ever seen. The level of detail is so fantastic. I salute you G-gnome :dremel:

    BTW, you and Zap should have a kid. He would be a mod god...The electronics knowledge of Zap and the case modding capabilities of G-gnome

    *ends his Dr. Frankensteinian mood*

    possible. there are jacks that allow more than two segments, I've seen up to 4, I've got one of these with my DV camera..., just make sure the machine is off when unplugging/plugging.

    you will notice the hiss/pop your earphones make....this is cause there is a slight short as its slid in....

    IIRC that 3rd pin is to report the RPM of the fan. Although if I'm wrong I'm sure somebody (cough Zap cough) will correct me.

    A question rised me a couple of days ago:

    Will the acrylic case get a static load or not? I'm not familliar with acrylic cases and I'm wondering about it.

    I think acrylic is fine, if it were acetate it can be charged negatively by rubbing with a cloth which would be dangerous.

    to answer my own question:
    I took out the yellow wire, plugged it in, and it worked fine.
    but i dont have a rheobus to attach it to, maybe it would always be full speed then?

    I haven't come across a 'bus yet that uses the yellow wire to control speed. There would be no point. All should be fine for you. :)

    ...ummm.... ...because it was KoreaMod! They have some fantastic mods and it's worth figuring out the navigation to be able to see them :D

    Assuming "gmaome" is me ( ;) ) - I have been in hospital having an op on my ankle.:blah:

    It all went fine (removing a plate and screws). I am now at home for the next few weeks so will be modding like a mad-gnome - as Cheese said to me "recovery is for whimps!". I will be fighting my way through the pain, dremel in hand, :)dremel: ) and hope to have an update in a week or so.

    I haven't felt the best the last few days so I am taking things slowly. I should get a lot done in the next few weeks but getting well is my main priority atm. I'll try and make the next update a good one to make up for the delay.;)

    I thank you for your patience. :)
