Analog-shock

[epicelite]

So I got this dual-analog off SUPER EBAY for $5 (lol buy it now for $5, was only like a hour old auction when I found it. )


Its SUPER nice to hold because of the longer handles, you have no freaking idea its AMAZING!


Anyway I want to switch out the guts with a dual-shock so I can have the vibration.
However it only has 1 built in spot for a motor on 1 side.(in the Jap version the motor was too powerful and damaged peoples PS1's )

Wat do?

I will get some pictures when everything dries off, it smelled like cigarettes when I got it so I took it apart and scrubbed every last part (excluding the circuit board ) with a toothbrush and anti-bacterial soap. I left the buttons to soak in a cup with water and dish soap for a few hours and the caked on crud came right off!

So anyway, just waiting for it all to dry now, then I will get some pictures.

Hot glue.

Hot glue for a RUMBLE MOTOR? Has your brain become unhinged?

I'm sorry, but...his brain has been rumble motored...there is no cure...

hold it in-place with a little hotglue then JB weld it in

Actually, looking at the PCB it has a spot to solder 1 rumble motor in place.

Do you think I should, or...

I mean I dunno because in the jap version the motor supposidly pulled too much current and could damage the PSone but was it the motor or the circuit design?

 

[XCVG]

Probably a combination of both. I wouldn't recommend it.

So like when trying to get the awesum analog sticks to go back on. Like there is no groove in them to they can spin freely.


I tried using some elmers glue but the right one never seems to get stuck and I have glued it in like 3 times now but it keeps spinning (yes I gave it time to dry.)


I don't want to use hot glue or something stronger because:
1 I might need to remove the sticks eventually
2 It might get stuck in the analog thing underneath them

Hack the stick tops. Cut whatever holdy-dealy it might have on and glue/mightyputty/ABS cement on the bottom part of a DualShock cap, the part that holds it on the stick.

Then they wont be centered in properly.

they will be if you dont suck.
