OK - so you don't need to buy ALL the resistors... just the 3w or 5w ones with values .5 - 5.6 Ohm

Thanks for another awesome video! (I kind of wish these were out when was first researching how to build my own saber).

This is just what I did last week to play with getting a purple out of an old R/G/rB tri rebel I had wired up (but never used).

Sometimes simple just works. For just a few $, and some patience, you can experiment and play around with color mixing.

I'm NOT a fan of alligator clips for this though. I found some "mini" springs at an electronics website, that you can pry open and slot your wire/resistor into. It eliminates the need for solder, and provides a more secure connection.

Great video once again! I'm about to use this method on a custom tri-rebel lime/red orange/royal blue as soon as the NB are back in stock.
