I decided to just go with chassis parts. In the long run it will be easier for me, and probably look a lot better than what I can put together with PVC. I will cut a groove in the side of the speaker...

Can I use a battery holder such as http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/4AAA-Battery-Holder-with-JST-connector-P724.aspx to recharge the Ni-MH batteries that I want to use, if it is linked to a recharge...

*loud sigh* So I send a query to Tim about the P4 LEDs, and he told me that they have been discontinued. Can I still run my planned 4.8V battery pack if I change the resistor to the correct one and...

That's an awesome looking saber

I already have a smart charger, so that's why I'm getting the charge adapter. For batteries, Im planning on using 4x NiMH batteries in the saber. Already calculated the resistor for the 4x batteries...

So here are two parts lists. One is for me, the other is a friend's. We want to place the order at the end of October. Can someone please double check both lists for me and make sure we have...

Thanks for the heads up, I added a metal button. I might still decide to swap the choke for the style 1, but other that that I believe the list is completed. Thanks for answering all my questions so...

http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/ViewWishlist.aspx?WishlistId=32545 here is my final shopping(wish) list. Does this look like everything? If the 8-32 drill and tap isn't in stock I'll get the 10-32...

0.o those sabers look amazing. Very well done.

That's an awesome tutorial, thanks for pointing it out.

Will have a look for a soldering iron and some wire strippers next time I make it to a hardware store. As for soldering wire, thin and lead-free seems to be the way to go. I'll also need some...

I think I'll try and build by own chassis for this. What kind of wire should I get, the 24 or 26 gauge?

*cries in corner* Ok, so acrylic disks to help keep the NB safe. I assume that the battery chassis/chassis rig isn't strictly necessary, but useful to keep everything neat and tidy inside the hilt?...

*diagram copied from the Nano Biscotte user manual and edited to add a recharge port

I did a quick edit of the existing diagram to add the recharge port. Is this correct? the recharge port...

Will the higher wattage have an impact on battery life?
Is it necessary to isolate the Nano board after soldering on the wires, and what would I use to do this?
Will I need to add something for...

I had a nice reply typed out and when I posted I wasn't logged in, copied the reply...and didn't :( *sigh*

NiMH batteries seems to be the easiest to find.

I had a look at the Nano's wiring...

About the pommel insert, will that one be fine, or is there one of the vented inserts that can fit the power jack? I'm thinking of providing the sound with a bit of space to escape the hilt here....

Ok, so I know the noob list says start simple, but I decided to add a bunch of extras, since shipping is pricey to South Africa. I will hopefully be placing my order around January.

Saber basics:...

Thanks, I will definitely do that. Wouldn't want to have the package arrive here just to realize I missed something that's impossible to find here. I would call it wallet-ache personally :mrgreen:

Greetings all. Been looking around the forum for a couple of days, just got my activation email and though I'd say hi.

Um...hi.

So I'm from South Africa and will be placing an order in the not...
