12 Volt Points Here!

I've used this point on a v10 for LED's. PS2 is working great, LED's work great. I measured this on a v2. This point changes position and direction across different boards but still the same leg.

PLEASE!!! Someone with the knowledge verify this for safety!!! Thanks.

that's the mother board isn't it. i can't get to my mother board anymore cause i got ONE striped screw that just is not coming out. i might use my dad's sheet metal cutters to get to it.

bad idea to pull 12v from the motherboard...best to take it from the power board

Thanks arashd, I somewhat agree with that. Although, we do power our chips straight from the board. I discussed this with my electronics buddy and determined that what I used was probably okay.

2 bright blue LED's ripped from a skull window washer/lights for auto.
requires 12v. Has inline resistor to 6.?v, which provides 3.3? to each LED.
Removed resistor & put on 5v used with DUO2se, sucks, dim lights.
Would've been nice to use 12v free from romeo mod but, too tight.
This point is a transistor. The minimal draw of ?ma is likely to be okay.

As you can see by the ?'s, is why I have an electronics buddy. All I can say is people were asking for 12v on mainboard, so there is a possibility. When & if it cooks me, I'll let you know.

Thank you for this, I have a V9 console and I am willing to install a LEDs strip, where do I have to wire the (-) ?? Any metal shield should be OK??
Thank you
