So yeah, yeah, yeah I've been out for a while. Struggling to find time for ANY of my projects, including saber building. Above is...

Sorry for the necro, things have been crazy crazy crazy!!! :S I'm not really willing to spend more than 100-150 on this saber, I just want the cool look of a TCSS saber with a few accents(just bells...

wow, looks similar to an ignition switch on a saber. lol sweet! haha :P and sorry, just a figure of expression, I really don't know much about any of this stuff, so really couldn't actually help...

wow, great idea!!! looks awesome!

well, I was also running two accent led's that I want to flash and twinkle in a sequence, so I kinda do need an arduino, unless there is an alternate cheaper route that does the same thing.

don't really watch it that much, so couldn't help you there. :P

lol I'm gonna get so much mileage out of this. lol

yea, I'm thinkin so. I'm going for a 7.4 mainly cause I want a longer operation(I'll be using this for my films) so imma buy the smart charger.

:P ok, ok. lol my mom is a tightwad, guess she...

ahh, I see.
and what if I found a 7.4 usb charger?

would this work? USB Charger

ok, cool beans.

ok, cool. now for the charger, is there some special charger I have to but from radio shack that plugs into an outlet?

thanks, I'll make sure I wire it that way.

EDIT: so for any more electronics, I keep the current flowing in a loop, with the negative of any electronics ahead of the recharge port flowing back to...

yes, I could see the image, I just wasn't getting what it wanted me to get. lol thanks for y'all's help, it has been much appreciated and has probably saved me more money than I know. lol

Lawrs!!! there you are!! thanks!!

I'm sorry sloth, please don't get frustrated, this is the very first time I've messed with any electronics... that said, Like this?
...

so, like this:

so, from what i understand from reading the manual, this is what it should be like?

ok, thanks y'all. I'm not using a board yet, because this is a prop for my fanfilms, so no led's wired to the blade, that's edited afterwards. what I'm putting in the hilt is my AV mom switch, two...

ok, so here's a pic of my wiring Diagram for a recharge port, let me know if I'm wrong on something.

so I'm buying this Illuminated switch, and was wondering whether I needed a specific battery type? I was also looking to create a recharge port for it, would someone care to give me a rough outline...

Standard 2D to 3D conversion. all he did was layer an extra episode I on top of the other one just a little offset, similar to "real" 3D, but not really 3D. If he did what he knows is the right thing...

haha yep. lol he needs to put down everything else he's doin, and do another new Star Wars movie, like do The Force Unleashed or somethin, and that would be cool.

haha exactly. lol the "thread" is like almost as old as I am xD haha I remember it comin out when I was a kid, he definitely should have left it in the 90's instead of tryin to make it "3D" lol

true, and IMO, I believe the bottom line is this: Mr. Lucas did what he could, with what he had, where he was at, and I commend him for his work on Star Wars, and on inspiring the Animation and VFX...
