The Red Ring of Awesome: The ii-case HOT ROCK mod |
Listed in: Wii Tags: Team Xtender
Ó
With high temperatures being the major killer of today's consoles, it's good that people with enough time and resources on their hands are thinking up on ways to counter the bricking epidemic. Such is the case with Team Xtender and their latest offering in the ii-case series - the HOT ROCK CASE for the Nintendo Wii.
While it doesn't really help eliminate the actual risk of heat-related damage, the HOT ROCK case does offer an early warning system. The installed LED lights change color according to your console's current temperature, this is possible due to the built-in LED thermometer in the mod itself.
Say, for example, your Wii is in a well-ventilated spot, away from direct sunlight and heat - the HOT ROCK case LEDs would glow a chilly light blue. If there's a bit of heat but not enough to cause any significant damage, the lights would then change to green (about 36º - 40º Celsius). And if you're playing with your Wii roasting on an open fire, it'll flash red (over 55° Celsius). That would be your cue to turn the console off and check just what's making it so hot (and if you WERE really roasting it on an open fire, it's time to take it off the spit).
Keep it locked right here for the latest in Team Xtender's series of mods.
