Hopefully, your payday is tomorrow. :)

I just did this with my son's initiate v3 hilt. Easy enough. You can indeed use the same resistor, as the manual states. You can also use a 12mm AV momentary switch; but since US press-fits their...

I was lazy - I assumed just the two non-white dice. I'm sorry.

Oops, I forgot to answer your question: Yes.

You don't *have* to run it at 1000ma; you can technically run it at 700ma, or even 2000ma with adequate cooling. The buck will adjust the voltage, as long as the power source has enough to drive it....

Two points I'd like to make.
1. If you're using a buckpuck, you'll want a 7.4v battery, or a 4xAA battery holder.
2. The tri-crees (even the red ones) can and should be run at 1000mA.
...

I opted for the second option. I'm very happy to report a successful modification. Thanks again for your help.

Thank you, TrypWyr!

Hello everyone,
I've wired up an NBv2 with power indicator (off during sleep) as per
11272
but the led dims instead of dies during deep sleep. Have any of you seen this before?

The wiring in my diagram is exactly as I built it. The only problems I had were due to my lame soldering skills. So yes, please use my diagram if it helps you keep it straight. Just make sure you do...

It was interesting, but not too difficult. I don't have a machine shop, so I just dremeled down the speaker mount: http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/MHS-speaker-mount-V2-For-28mm-Speakers-P314.aspx...

And here it is!

This is a pic of the hilt:

Hello everyone!
This is my first post, and I thought I'd share this with you. I was looking for wiring diagrams, tutorials, anything to get a nice, bright purple saber. The tri-cree seemed optimal...
