I know I messed up and ordered a latching switch instead of a momentary, so will be fixing that. I probably also need to order the screws to mount the box to the hilt. Probably get a Port cover for the recharge port of some kind.
But I think that handles pretty much everything but the wires and other tools that I have for my RC cars and planes. I do have a question, when I was looking through the NBv4 it says it doesnt have an indicator light (the one red LED I purchased was going to just be a place holder on the box, but then I saw further down that it has one. Can anyone clarify. I have the NB with the speaker on it.
Second set of eyes is always appreciated.
Looking forwards to more research and awesome builds and my first saber and meeting you all!
