All I need to know is the positive and negative wires to the LEDs

Okay, so I got this board here, it has the ability to power 4 LEDs and I want to try hooking it up to a Tri-cree, but I need more info on it.
Damn it, I wanted to be the first to post this... Oh well, you win some you lose some.
Well... that sucks......
"I saw a build with a CF and an 11.1v battery so I think it's possible"
Okay, please send a link please!
Agreed. I hope someone can figure out how bright this thing is.

Okay, I'm no expert, but you can see from the red arrows that this place is pretty lit up, and the blue arrows show reflections of light FROM the sword! Any super math guys here that...
Imagine a photon blade with this stuff in it, or any blade really, a solid LED sheet in any color that bright! Their in a convention center for $%&@ sake! And look at how bright it is!
Why not put one of these between two polycarb sheets?

Holly! Just watch, I think we may have something here!

Pennies, BBs and hot glue, the old Nerf heavy weight mod. It can add a LOT of weight if you do it right. ALSO! If you put a choke just before the pommel it add a #$%& ton of counter balance.
Its less about the safety more about the look.
The idea was to make it look like a sword with a core of energy in the middle. I don't like the pool noodle saber, it looks rather stupid. With my setup you don't need a high power LED string either.
The pool noodle saber, to be blunt... Looks awful. What I'm doing is taking the blade from a foam sword and wrapping it around the blade. Also, while the string blades are bright they can also break...
Interesting... But poly carb is not very good for light transmission, see Ripper blade video.
I use a shorter than normal blade, this makes it stupidly bright. But, if you really want even color, get a colored tube, sand it VERY well with a fine grit sanding sponge and you will get astounding...

Solid acrylic and polycarbonate have been done before,

It is a standard blade with a nerf blade over it to make it safer. It gives it a distinct look.
If you get these http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/1-OD-Thick-walled-empty-blade-P451.aspx
The TCSS diffuser and sand the blade. You will have a VERY even blade. You can mix blade and LED color as...

To my knowledge, this is the FIRST Nerf blade for a lightsaber. I know I can't be the only one here that plays Nerf.
I need a confirmation on this. I am building an MHS saber with a ROTS Anakin soundboard but I need to use the converter.
