Viktor added cool light effect to a translucent XBOX360 wireless controller:
I didn’t want to use an arrangement where the lights would be on for an extended period of time, because that would lead to very short battery life in the controller. I also wanted this mod to be very easy to make, without microcontrollers or other kind of logic. To make things more challenging, I was not allowed to drill or modify in any way the existing controller cover.
So, after some brainstorming I got the idea to flash some lights inside the translucent controller case whenever the rumble motors are activated. This is a very simple, yet very cool looking (especially in a dark room) modification.
