KR Sabers Coupler Compatibility
I spent the morning in Korbanth's shop, and we discussed this very subject.
The original KR Sabers coupler was designed for the 2014 DM1. It somewhat works with...
This was probably the fastest I've every installed as saber! Everything went perfectly for the second half. Virtually everything I learned I've already shared. So, instead of boring you with text I'm...
Oddly, it's not what I expected. When I turn on both sides the sound kind of syncs up, haha. The good news is that it really amps up the volume. Those little speakers are just as loud as the 28mm...
ooh! post pics when you get going on those, I'd love to see how they come out!
CHASSIS PROTOTYPING:
One of the perks of being enrolled at Arizona State University is getting a school sponsored membership at the TechShop in Chandler, Arizona. This place is like Neverland for...
I am looking at having to do another one of these this summer as a commission. If they ask for working LEDs, I'll definitely try those little resistors.

HILT WORK:
The DM1 is a delicious mixed bag of...
ELECTRONICS INSTALLATION:
Wiring a Nano Biscotte is pretty easy once you’ve done a few of them. Last year I went ahead and put together a standard wiring diagram for this card that is my personal...

Greetings Saberland!
Lately I’ve been busy with school, but summer vacation is in full swing, and I am getting...
LOL!! thank you for sharing!

damn, that's some great work you've done here.
I've done exactly that before, lol. Ultimately it depends on the individual anatomy of the saber, so I tried to keep the diagram as 'generic' as possible. The intention was to create a reference...

UPDATE:
Everything I need for the hilt is in! I have some fun ideas for the shroud, though that'll take some time before I have access to all of the tools I need to make it happen. In the...
looks great! fantastic work!
Check the manual for an "accidental off" setting. It will allow you to add a minimum time to hold the button down to deactivate the saber and is designed specifically for this purpose. Happy...
Even with resistors installed I've had issues trying to run any of the die at the full 1032. I recommend using resistors and the calculated max drive settings. You can overdrive a little (with...
mine looks more like a pale purple than white, lol.
you've got it! remember, the prizm blade channels are set up as a common anode driver and the accent pads are normal common cathode.
since the qullions are so much shorter you could run them at lower power. just make sure you recalculate resistor values if you try it.
I had considered a cautionary note regarding the deep sleep solder point, but it is covered pretty well in the manual.
The circuit shown is how I wired up my recent builds, but I could knock out a...
All three use 3.7v 18650 batteries and 0.5ohm/3w resistors.
Due to the brightness of the LEDs the camera tends to wash out. To the naked eye all three are distinctly different colors.
The saber on the left is a short 1" thick-walled blade (no diffuser...
