yes. A lot. Diodes only work in one direction, it's kinda the point of them.

The specs are the same. I agree that it is confusing the 1 vs I!

24.03.2011		word, this is my first electrical mod job. Does it matter which side on the arcade button that I connect the first vci wire too? And I place the diode colored band towards the button? Thanks

24.03.2011		you can cut them to any size....1/4" to 1/2" should be fine...and they can go to any button first/second third (doesn't matter) or any one of the two legs (either one).

24.03.2011		the youtube guide has no information on how to precut the diodes....
Eileen Hincher
24.03.2011		it shouldn't matter how deep you cut the wire ends of the diode. just follow the youtube posted guide, it's also somewhere on the djtt main site.

i am wondering however if polarity matters at all on the diode.

also, is there a better definitive guide anywhere for the arcade mod to the vci?!
Delfina Lorimor
22.03.2011		How far do I cut the wiring on the diode? also, when i am cutting the internal wires of the vci, AFTER i cut the ground wire, do it matter where i put the first wire to the arcade button? Thanks
Hang Postman
02.05.2010		K thanks, and also, did i hear something about resistors or?...
Leeanna Ayla
02.05.2010		Solder, good soldering iron, and shrink tubing.
Hang Postman
02.05.2010		Oh yea, would we need any thing else? we just need these diodes, some wire, then buttons?
Hang Postman
02.05.2010		So if i buy 1 or i, it will be the same?

30.04.2010		I bought my IN4001 Micromini Silicon diodes yesterday at Radio Shack and I have lots of wire. Now if all the other stuff will get here I'll be good to go.
Yahaira Wolensky
30.04.2010		why do you guys need "kits", just buy some diodes and wire.. solder + shrink wrap if you want to do a nice job, or you can tape it.. The overlays will be here in may, and the buttons + firmware are in the store..
Lanny Vanosten
25.04.2010		I believe the arcade mod kit (wires and all) is no longer available. Something about the final results were not good and people were having too much trouble 'making them work'.

you have to do it yourself...

02.03.2010		There is no definite date when the DIY arcade kits will be available again.
I know the boys at djtt are working hard getting the rest of the arcade controllers out, Ive been emailing them back and forth for months to get an idea when they are gonna sell/ship out the DIY Kits, Get in line like the rest of us and wait patiently
Ervin Filips
02.03.2010		The link is dead to the arcade mods...

Nu Schadle
