Tri rebel question.

[Darth Kenobi]

Today I ordered some parts and, hopefully, soon I will probably order electronics. My question is if you want to have a yellow blade color you would need to wire up the green and blue led pads. (This is a stunt saber) Are you able to wire up blue and green to make yellow in a stunt saber and if so both color dyes would be ran at 1000 milliamps right? How would you wire that and what battery pack would be the best to use?

[Yoshi-Taka]

Mixing blue and green will give you cyan (a lovely one, at that). The best yellow blade can be done with either a straight amber led, or mixing amber and red-orange (after checking a colour mixer. I'm not sure; I haven't done it). To get a Tri-Rebel with Amber and Red-Orange, you'll have to look outside of TCSS. To answer your other question, yes it can be done in a stunt.

If you want to mix Amber and Red-Orange, I believe you'll be able to wire them in series with a 700mA buckpuck, using a 7.4v battery pack (both of which you can get here at TCSS).

Oh ok thanks for the info! I will do a little bit of research to see what I can find.

[Yoshi-Taka]

You're welcome. I believe, and I'm not 100% sure about this, that there are multi-Amber Tri-Rebels as well. Wire a pair of amber dice in series and you'll have a very yellow blade. Same as above - wire the ambers in series, 700mA buckpuck (or the proper resistor if you need to save space), 7.4v battery pack. Easy-peasy.

In addition to the amber LEDs, you can also get a decent yellow by mixing green and red. Yoshi's suggestion about multi-Amber Tri-Rebels would likely be better though.

I searched up on google and found one that has two amber LEDs then one white led. So if I upgrade to sound I have a flash on clash led to use

Another very nice yellow/gold color is using a 2775K warm white tri-reb. I did this on my second build, "Illumination", if you want to see what it looks like, it should still be here on the forum if you do a search. It's running at approx 700mA on all 3 dice with a Nano-biscotti and a Nimh power supply (had to ship to Canada so no Lith-ions...)

That was very good and I like how the blade color looks I will pick one of those up. Thanks!
