Hey guys, one last question!

Thank you SOOO much Jay-Gon Jinn! That helps so much! :D
Thanks for the tips Don, is this any better?

Thanks for the answer!
Why is the position of the LED wrong? Can I not put it in series? If I put a strong enough resistor on it, wouldn't it not blow?
And here is a picture of the LED

Thanks a lot :) that helps!
Can anyone help me with the rest of my questions?
Alright, So I am still learning about wiring and stuff but I made a diagram of my circuit. I want to use 2 SPDT slide switches (on-off-on) to change the colors of the saber.
I have an RGB LED and...

Thank you! That was extremely useful.
Hey guys,
I couldn't find an answer to this on the forum so hopefully you guys can help me out.
So I want to make a "vibroblade" type blade for my lightsaber. I heard they were made out of...
Hi,
I tried to find a topic to help me but could not find one.
I bought a multicolor LED (with only 2 pins) from the electronics store and I want it to change colours. I was told that it...
I think there is confusion. I mean the strips on the hilt and not the blade! I did not find anything in those sections about the light strips.
Where did you get the LED strips?!
Wow thats amazing! Love the saber too. Good work @ARKM :D
@ARKM What is the coupler that corbin came up with? If you don't mind, id love to see pictures of your version that you have based off of that! I would love to see as many pictures of separable...
@FenderBender wow thats pretty sweet! Never saw a concept like that one before. Thanks for the share!
@strydur No I didn't miss those in my search! I actually just havn't seen them in action or even seen too many actual images of it. I just know there were some issues with it (sharp edge, button not...
So, like many people, I would love to have a coupler that allows you to connect 2 lightsabers and disconnect on the spot (rather than unscrewing).
I did a lot of research and came across these...
@sks1138 yes I did see that thread in my research before trying it out. It is quite amazing. I actually also saw your thread already (I try and research as much as I can before posting). I had saved...
I have been experimenting with acid etching. I haven't had much success. My guess is that its because of the type of metal I used. What do you guys suggest using for testing?
I followed the...
Hey guys!
I got 7 feet of pipe to practice cutting with my dremmel for my next hilt. I want to see what I am able to do before I give myself something way too hard to do (which I already did)....
Thanks!
And yes I am definitely not asking for anyone to do the work for me ;)
I think I know how to wire it with the 3 tabs, but the thing is, the only option in the store is the MWS recharge...
Thanks FJK!
I like an hour from the border so I decided I will get everything shipped to the states and pick it up there. Which means I can get the 18650 battery at 3.7v.
I just bought my blue...
Hey guys!
Brand new to this forum. I have been reading threads for a while now. Looked up a bunch of different NB diagrams and read the user manual so I hope my diagram is ok!
This will be my...
I am also from ottawa! If you guys find a good local option or a good website to purchase batteries at, please post!
