Heres my parts list:

Green, yellow led indicator or accents whatever you call them
Black machined covertech knob
The new grip style 1
Battery charger and battery pack, 3.7V 900mAH 14500 Lithiums
2.1mm power jack
Black mom switch with the meta housing
Trans white PolyC batte blade with bullet tip

Am I missing anything else? All this will be for my US2.5 MHS saber. Can I use the selected rechargable batteries for the US2.5 board? Its the board plus a blue LUXIII led plus the two added accent leds in the list. Anyway, thanks for the info. If I need help wiring the recharge port to the saber I'll ask. I never wired a recharge port or accent leds before.

you'll need the right PCB for the batteries. if you wire them in series you'll need to remove both built in PCBs and wire a 7.4V PCB. if you wire them in parallel for 3.7V you can remove one and wire them both to the remaining one.

You cannot use 7.4v with US 2.5. It will overheat and may kill your board.
I recommend 4.8v using NIMH.

Ok @Skott. Thanks for the heads up. I will look for those then.
