i tried searching for info on both of these but couldn't find much (maybe my search skills just suck).
I've got a pretty small hilt, its a main body 2, pommel style 3 v2, blade holder 8 which was plenty for the bucky setup. so i ordered my PC-U and some Li-Ions to power it. The pack (2x18650s) is the whole hilt. the switches take up a lot of room too. I'm ordering a 3" and 4" extension for the hilt to see which works best, as i'd like to have a recharge port in there too. What i'm wondering is could i get away with a 3.7v 18650 running the PC-U + a green luxeon rebel star? i'm pretty sure i can't since it says min is 4.5v.
second question is, runtime. 2200mAh cells @ 7.4v should last quite a while right?
thanks, and sorry if this has been asked tons of times. i got my PC-U soldered up and tested and i'm so excited to get my saber finished!
