Thanks alot you guys! I had wondered about the material b/c I thought aluminum might be a little to pliable. Thanks for the illustration Gelu. That should help alot when I try to make mine. I...

I hope this is the right forum[:D]

I found a pot I think will work. This one is rated at 250 ohms at 1 watt and its linear. Here's the link

That sounds good, I am from Chesterfield Va. I would love to see one that works so just let me know what a good time is for you and I'll try to get off work. I don't know about you but Sunday...

Thanks for all of the help guys. I didn't make it to the pizza place james, though I did think about it. I ended up having to work, it is nice knowing there are some other star war aficionados out...

Do you think you could show me some sort of wiring diagram for what you are talking about? I'm not quite sure I understand how to wire in a resistor in parallel. If I didn't use the resistor and...

Thanks Do-Clo, that cleared up all of my questions.

Ok, so for Blue or Green I would use an 8.2 ohm 2 watt resistor so that the current going to the led would be 3.5v at 350mA. Would the pots I was looking at work? They are rated 1/2watt at 500...

Thanks for all the help and the welcome James. I don't post on forums alot so I didn't realize there is an edit button, I'll keep that in mind for the future; I'd hate to have xwing come in guns...

Maybe I didn't figure it out. After taking a closer look at what the calculator returned I would need a resistor rated at 8.2ohms, but Tim doesn't sell one that has that rating. Did I do something...

Ok, I think I've finally figured out the resistance calculator I found in a different post. After checking the stats for the led I want to use It says the red is 2.2v, Blue is 3.5v, and Green is...

I think I read somewhere that the prolight leds are like three 1 watt leds in one package. Is that right? And if so, which resistor should I use for a 1w led? Thanks! OH, and now that I think...

Hi, I had a couple of questions about the prolight leds. After reading through the posts I think I would like to try my hand at one. What I want to know is since this isn't a luxeon led(at least I...
