400b or 400c

**prozak2005** · 07-08-2004,10:16 PM

I've heard that both these version lasers will work in a v2. Is there any advantage of going witha 400c instead of b, or is it not recommended. I would like to know before i buy, and it's only a few dollars difference so, if you all agree it will work, i will go witht he 400c. what do you think?

go with c

b might not work unless modifications are done

i thought version 2 used 400b to begin with. It's even what i pulled form my console, says right on it. but still 400c will work?

yes. i'd prefer a 400c

I don't think you will be able to fit a C laser on a V2 because of the white cog mechanism. it will give you a big headache with the laser connection flat cable. The only PS2 which have a B laser originally and can use a C laser without any mechanical modifications is the V4 ...

ok, thanx, i guess it's a good thing i didnt order yet.

iono i seemed to be able to fit then in to v1 no problem. but i'd trust l_oliveira. as l_oliveira is a laser person not i. i remember the post from him dissembling lasers and such

it is'nt a big problem, as long as it works when i install a new one, i will stick with whats in it. (same type, not same DRE laser). Man i wish sony would have fixed that problem before mass producing and stuff. it's better to wait than to not have a fully fuctional ps2.
