Aye 3.7v
Thanks again!
7.4v...... Someone on the discord said that was a nono. Going to get a 3.4v and a new strip.
I've been trying to figure out why my neopixel blade won't turn on.
I checked all of the connections several times, voltage reads 7v at the hilt side pins. The speaker, both switches, and kill...
Thank you! I may have shorted out a few USB cards in the past... needed to make sure this wouldn't happen yet again
Quick question: Should I be getting a continuity tone on my multimeter when I touch the USB port and the negative wire on the CFS X MK3?
I finally had time to rewire the board. The speaker is now working well, and when I press the on/off switch the sound turns on and off. But, once I take out the kill plug the LED goes on and doesn't...
The SD card that was in the soundboard was shot, so I replaced it and now the switch works and the sound/led kind of work. The LED is still flickering and speaker sounds fuzzy. I'm gonna try to go to...
I got the battery to charge. There is no more noise coming from the speaker, but now the LED just keeps flickering and the switch doesn't turn it on or off.
I tested the power jack, and there is no power coming from the battery even when the charger is plugged in. Currently I ghetto rigged it and it is charging so hopefully it doesn't explode.
Also...
I have it apart already. So I should unsolder all the connections and then re-connect with new wire? Is there a way to check to see if the battery is still good?
Edit: I just looked at it again....
I built my saber over a year ago. It worked fine then it stopped working for some reason I don't remember. I am able to start working on it again to get it back in fighting condition but there are a...
it only charges for a couple of minutes...if that.
So I built my saber a few months ago, with little sparring, and just recently it won't stay on for more than 30 secs(haven't used it in a month or so before this). Could thus be the battery? I hope...
Here is the hilt completed:

And I put the soul p4 back in, because the red leads keep breaking off on the rgb, so Ill fix...
If you go to my build thread you can see my blade.
I didn't put a resistor on the red and it makes a pinkish color.
But I want purple, so I am going to resist it.
...
I decided to go with white and gold. I also wired the Blue and Red dies together, I now need a resistor of some sort and I will be finished, well and I need to think of a name then I'll be finished....
So I'm restarting the build.
I order some new stuff to fix it and I am in the process of painting.
I'm going to do a purple blade and going to do either a gold and white theme or gold and black...
Yeah I am using a PC. I probably won't run them in series, unless that gives me a purple I like.
Just wondering would I be good with a "7.4v Li-ion 800mAh 14500 Battery Pack"? And I don't need a...
I have a "LED Engin LZ4 10W Multi Color" I plan on wiring it to make a purple blade
I would wire the blue die then the red and put a resistor on the red neg, and wire the postives together. Does...
where would I even look on the forums to see how to get it repaired
if that is what happened, how do I fix it if I can?
sorry for the delay. I tried a new SD card, still didnt work. Here is a picture of the board.

I have an SD card in my mp3 player, ill try that see what happens.
i taped side of the board that touches the hilt, so it shouldn't have short there.
I took the SD card out and nothing happened
I may have broken/fried my PC. I was pushing the battery pack and board in my hilt, then the SD card pops out and everything turned off. I quickly took everything out check the connections and such....
