I'm converting a vader force fx right now and have 3 diff red LEDs on hand to choose from.A red p4, red/orange lux III and a red lux rebel star I want the best brightest movie look, it will be running off of the 6 AA pack, what do you guys think
Thanks
use the P4. the others are either not quite as bright, or orange.
I say go for the uber bright R/O!
Use the R/O led! It is super bright and the best color for a Darth vader saber IMO.
red/orange all the way. They are super bright.

The only disclaimer I have with those types of colors are that they tend to be a bit more.... finicky about voltage and current. But then again, all the info you need is available in the store..
You should go with the red P4. (if it runs 3AA or 3AAA you'll be fine.). If you upgrade that to 4AA/4AAA, youll need a 1000mA buckpuck to put between it and the soundboard.
The lux 3 at 1400ma I say.
Ok so off of the 6 AA pack that my vader ANH has is it gonna push the lux 3 to full potential
