Hello all. Long-time reader, first-time poster. Glad to join this fun community!
Planning a saber (as we all are, I imagine, ha ha) and have two questions I couldn't find answers to on the forum. First one is, will a Custom Tri-Cree fit Heat Sink v3? I can't imagine it wouldn't, but in the description it says "for use with rebels," and the way my life works, as soon as I order those two parts and DON'T ask, they won't work. So sorry if that's a silly question.
Other question is, does anyone know if an accent LED would fit in the activation box hole meant for a black/red momentary aux switch? Might have more cram-fu choices if those are interchangeable, but I couldn't find dimensions for both.
Thanks for reading and/or answering, and MTFBWY.

I haven't worked with accent LED's, but I can tell you that a custom Tri-Cree will fit in Heat Sink v3

These: http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/Accent-LEDs-C122.aspx will not fit in the holes meant for the type 20/21 red/black momentary switches. You'd need to have the hole enlarged to accomodate the LED.
