Wiring Diagram help
I'm in the process of getting ready to make my first saber and have chosen to opt for an old Hasbro board out of a toy lightsaber I had lying around.
However I'm not sure if my wiring diagram(s) are right and was hoping that someone might be able to give me some feedback on them.
I have been referring to the following threads in order to make said diagrams:

Here are my diagrams:

I am fairly new to this and am rather ill at the moment so I haven't been able to think completely straight to the point where I think I've completely left out the soundboards battery negative connection on one of the diagrams. [EDIT] Added another diagram to amend the one which didn't have the soundboard battery negative connection on.
Any help is appreciated :)

Your first image is correct for how you should wire the board. When you go to wire it just check the legs on the recharge port and the transistor. Also, I can't tell you if that resistor is correct as it depends on the color of your LED. It is correct for a blue or royal blue cree.

Thankyou for letting me know, yes my LED is a blue cree LED.
This might be a silly question but when you say to check the legs on the transistor what exactly do you mean?

He means to be extra careful that you wire them up correctly. It's easy to get your wires hooked up incorrectly the first time you're wiring these.
