...I came across a sound module from an FX saber (Anakin). I'd like to wire it into my EL hilt at some point but (belive it or not, I've searched the forums for days) I can't quite grasp exactly where the motion sensor goes. Does it just kind of...sit in there?

is it the anakin EP2 or anaking EP3?

because the anakin ep2 is an EL saber. the board is round. should be very easy.

if its an ep3 led string saber, the setup will be different.

Any specific reason you uses EL?

It's from a ROTS saber. I simply prefer the look of the EL blades. I have a LED hilt that I use for dueling but for show, I prefer EL.

I saw Do-Clo's schematic for wiring sound to an EL hilt with a single switch. I get the connections but I'm just unclear on where the shock/motion sensor sits within the hilt.

the sensor can set anywhere. it works best higher up twards the bladeholder area of the saber. gets a better responce
