Interesting find, I would like to have one to play with. I can see it now a saber with a remote control. :idea:

[Hasid Lafre]

you could prolly tie the control pad into a comlink of sorts.

Not sure how you'd power that with batteries

[Do-Clo]

I am sure that there is a power supply in the base of the unit to convert 120 volts ac into a much lower dc voltage.

maybe this might be a better choice ?

Dollars to pesos that these use the Prolight 3x1w emitters. I even have a few of those lying around.

I'd like to play around with one, if only for the control circuit.

These are some really interesting ideas Torlin, lets see what Do-Clo can do with his magic techno skills. I bet this will turn into something REALLY cool.
Thanks for posting this!

[valeon]
