    I think the color channels and accent pads make sense, let me know what I am goofing up.

    Most crystal chambers would use a RGB led, and people love color changing so they run the LED to color...

    I had it charging earlier today bit I wasn't sure one of the wires running to the board was solid so I re-soldered it and a few others.

    Everything lights up properly on clashes, its very strange.

    Question: What are the dimensions of this board? Has there finally been a consensus on how many ohms the speaker is, on another thread I saw a guy say it was 8 and no resistor was needed.

    I want...

    Gotcha, I was hoping it was a solid feature. That's fine resistors it is then. So battery is 3.7 and forward voltage on the cree blues is 3.47 with 1A. So I should need a resistor that is .23Ohms and...
