;) Thanks, I'll be shootin', I didn't mean to offend anyone!

Nice! VERY Nice! I have to try this out some time, this just looks sweet dude! And I agree, we need blade pics!

Thanks! Damn it! I indeed mis-pasted that! Thanks for the heads up, changing it ASAP :)

Thanks! The P4 is EXTREMELY bright! Highly recommend!

Yaaay! I'm so exited right now :D

As the title suggests, I just finished my first saber, that I would like to show off :p

I went to German Customs this morning, picked the box up, payed...

Woooohooo, I'm done! I shall be posting pics in the Gallery :D

Thanks! Still, the question remains ,the LED has several '+' and '-' "ports" (sorry, again I don't know the English terminology), wich ones should I solder to?

Alright, parts have arrived, I shall be building :P

Only question I have is this: The LED has several '+' and '-' "ports" (sorry, again I don't know the English terminology), wich ones should...

Here, seems to be over 5 V though

Great! Found that one already on ebay :) Also got my Obi Saber today, gonna try and gently rip it apart tomorrow :D

Now I'm not doubting your knowledge and skill here, but why is there no 5v...

Okay thanks! But why does it seem neither of the diagrams exept some of the ones on page 1 show that regulator?
What sort of 5v regulator should I buy if I used an Obi Board, a White P4, the above...

Thanks! BTW: Just out of curiousity, could I use a 4 AAA batt. pack on that sound board without a resistor? Can the board take the 6v? The toy itself runs with 3AAAs right?

Also, are there...

Oh that's just sweet! :D I was so happy to have found a soundboard with actually good sounds, I liked the idle of the force action saber (yeah go figure) but the single swinging sound just...

Great! Thanks very much! Another thing, I heard the soundboards wouldn't fit into MHS parts. Now that sounds... odd. Is it true? :p

Hey Guys!

I'm planning on building my second saber (yeah, haven't even done my first :rolleyes:) with the new 2010 economy soundboard. I found this thread to be very helpful :
...

Just placed my order! Can't wait! :D Now I shall use the time to do my research and learn more about electronics :)

Awesome! I shall order tomorrow :D

Thanks for all the help people!

I'll use the 6V battery pack that comes with the kit. So that'd be the 3,3 ohm 5W resistor for the Main LED and 220 ohm 1/4 W resistor for the AccLed, am I correct?

Hey, thanks for the clear up! I'll buy a couple of feet of 26 gauge since it's so cheap and he only has that wire in diff colours... If that turns out to be too thin, I'm sure there is wire in...

Okay, I think I'll go with a 10° for now, as that is in the kit. I'm sure this won't be my last saber so I will surely read more, and gain more knowledge.
So other than that, is my list okay?

As...

8,7? Isn't 10 the right choice? I thought I read something in the lens thread that if you're using a thin walled blade under 35" to use a 10° lens. Just askin', since only 5° and 10° is selectable in...

Okay thanks! Alright. I'm getting more and more confused with blades. Everybody seems to have a different opinion.
What I want is a 30" blade, Green P4, that is bright and evenly lit, what blade /...

amen dude... That's exactly what I thought!

Say I use a 5 degree lens... I've heard you need to do some modding to make it fit inside the lens holder. Is it that little...knob that's in the way?...

Oops! Then I'll have to forget about the illuminated switch because all the latching illum. switches are sold out! Hmm, a shame, but that will make my first build easier, and I will have more time to...

Hey! Well, looks like there are illum. SPST switches :P Didn't even notice! http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/SPST-Momentary-green-dot-Illuminated-switch-P586.aspx

So to my understanding, I would...
