Just be sure they know what goes into configuring/customizing a proffie saber. Can only get so far copying and pasting code, plus the setup of being...

I was sure that Tim was right and these were latching, but when I wired everything up, they wouldn't work with the default Crystal Focus setting of...

Maybe this is too much to ask but maybe you could stock proffie and or snpixel soundboards. There seems to be a really high demand from my friends...

Amen to that part about crystal chambers! Long overdo...

I would personally like to see more force fx elite conversion kits for neopixel. Particularly the new obi Wan kenobi series. Thin neck that comes...

Then you’re all set in that regard.

Lucky me, both girls asked for green.

Tim, you might be right! I don't have the original packaging. I will test it.

If it is a latching switch that will not matter. I know the OP said momentary but it looks like a latching one to me.

I’m not sure that the 5.6 had sleep mode, or that you’ll be able to turn off the switch light when the saber isn’t running.

Diagram here. 16mm Anti Vandal Latching Blue Ring Switch (thecustomsabershop.com) To keep it as basic as possible.. use C1 and NO1 for the...

The CF 5.6’s take 7.4V. I don’t think the “voltage hack” worked on those.

Thank you! I will do that!

I’d use the CF 5.6’s and wire red and blue in parallel, with a big resistor on the red. You want it to be about 400mA for a decent purple. That’s...

Thanks again for the advice. I will stick with the next highest one.

You would risk blowing the LED. I ALWAYS recommend getting the next highest one.

if you can source it sure, that 'closest resistor' part is just to guide you to the closest value the store carries is all, though some resistance...

One more question. When using the TCSS calculator, can I install the EXACT resistor I need to run each LED at 100% if they don't have one close...

Thank you so much, everyone, for all your help on this hacked and slashed (maybe a little ugly) budget build/modification!! I will post some...

I would use 750 mA for Red, 1000mA for other colors.

Ok. That makes perfect sense now. That is why only the red LED is lighting up right now. I will use that calculator to figure out each resistor....

it's typical practice to put a resistor on each die (color). Sharing a resistor you would likely suffer from either diminished brightness or even a...

No. The color extenders were specifically for CF v6 - v9. They aren’t for other boards. And the CFX doesn’t use it because it handles everything on...

Thank you for that! So that I correctly understand you, hypothetically speaking if I were to have ether a Crystal Focus Sound Module X MK3, Golden...

Thank you. I have it hooked up right now with a 100ohm resistor (I know that's too high) on the positive lead and only red is lighting up. 100ohm...

There are several styles of blade plugs in the store: https://www.thecustomsabershop.com/Blade-Plugs-C147.aspx

Hi, new here (first post) so apologies if a dumb question. I'm looking to convert my BS Kylo into a static display hilt. This post is great, and...

NPXL hilt side connector clear covers, sized to fit in the MHSv2 lens adapter setup please!
