Hey all I am excited to be documenting and sharing my process in the latest picofly switch mod on an o-led and a lite soon. I am waiting for everything to get here. If there are any questions about the process or suggestions on information that is currently missing that I should include please let me know. I currently have a few different consoles that I would like to document the process of moding so hopefully I can help clarify the steps that I take. Stay tuned!

Great!

Please keep us informed! There's never enough knowledge to achieve and more methods and "second" opinions are always welcome, even more if they clarify/simplify the process.

Will you be using a mosfet on the mods or a cable from another chip? Would love to see a clear (as in well described) tutorial about how to use a mosfet instead of a cable. Thanks in advance!

I don't have the cables so yes mosfets will be used. I don't really like the Idea of soldering them tiny fets directly to the chip so I actually have larger ones (easier to manipulate and use without a microscope) coming. I'll have parts and pics of everything I use. I've done a few v1's now and fell pretty confident I can get these other guys nailed down.
