[th hunter]

alright so i dont understand the charts that ave the eco board and lux III red/oreange and a 2.1 mm input with a 4.8 voolt nimh batteries i dont understand the multiple wires in the charts... how do u have like three wires going to one wire or nething like that??? do u connect the wires hence wire to wire? or do u connect wires at the point where all would be going? for ex. av switch wire goes to battery pack but so does led and main board . i dont know what im even saying .. this whole project has just got me so stresssed ......a hhhhhhhhhhhhh also i dont even know what side the positive negatives are for half of this stuff so that another main problem and the charts dont say and the stuff i have doesnt say

As far as soldering three wires into one; connect the three together and solder them to a single wire. If you follow the charts Equinox posted you should be able to figure it out. BTW Red (+) Black (-).

Don't let this stress you out too much. Its a hobby, it should be fun! :D

[th hunter]

so lets say three wires all go to the battery pack do u connect them b4 they get there and only one wire touches the battery pack or do u connect them at the battery pack ???? and i know red/ black lol but like my vader board doesnt have the negative sign for the three leds.. where is that located? also i forgot .. do i jest not need the regulator at all ? or do i need a smaller one??? thank u for ur time i have cooled down now but im still stressed i have to wait another couple of weeks to get the buck puck and the radio shack doesnt have the right resistor ... oh well.. kk i found a electonics outlet store and they have all the right resistors i am going there to pick them up i will have it wired by the end of the day :)))) now i have to wait for the bezel to come in the mail...

read this post and watch the videos - they teach you a lot about soldering and all that.

and you should use a bridge (multiple wires to 1 wire) to split one wire to the number you need.

What you need to do is...

STOP AND READ! :mrgreen:

go through each of the topics in the forums and read the stickies. they will answer almost any question you may have.
The way you are heading is going to mean some costly (in parts) mistakes, slow down, take a week or so, and figure out exactly what you need to do and how it works...

Hey man,
I know it seems confusing but remember everyone who ever made their own lightsaber.. Once, sat right where you sit.. frustrated, confused.. pissed.. frazzled.. you know cussing. Its something that takes time, study, learn, build, make mistakes, improve, (industry improvments), study, more mistakes..... study.. My advice.. take one step back(often things will become clear that were just out of view). Patience is the single most important trait of saberbuilding, the second being terrific or at least above average cram-fu skills(lol)

That still happens to me, actually. ;P

th hunter its going to take time to understand alot of what you see here. dont let stress get to you take your time and rember its just a hobby there is no gold silver or bronze.

i shall keep my thinking clear and free of all stress for i have my mhs body almost done and am so happy that i do not even mind that i completely suck at soldering /wiring lol and that my leds and soundboard are probably fried haha... oooh I also just got a new job so TCSS i am coming in full force once i get paid. I shall make the best sabers the world has ever seen and i will need to acquire a cf or u.s. and my lightsaber dream will have been fulfilled (for the first one) then onto my second/ third builds lol Th is may be an exageration... but we will see.

[Azmaria Dei]

stay aaway from the US boards... the maker is nothing but trouble and a lot of the boards were faulty to begin with... and the CF is hard to get too.... i would stick with econo and MR boards for now, since they're a lot easier to get.
