No prob, chill out, dude. :] (actually, the 'chill' part goes for everyone)
Bingo, 'cause I want to apply the "colour shade tech" to sabers of other colours, e.g. orange, yellow, pink, pale blue, et caetera.
I'm on the search for them already.
Except for the slop part, I understand everything now. You said exactly what I planned to do, but didn't know whether it was safe or not, and with the fancy words I don't happen to know.
I will try a 3.3 ohm 5W resistor for the red die first, and if I don't like the purple, I will use the multimeter and the pot to get a better shade.
Thanks for providing the information. Your help is much appreciated. :]
One final question, though: are there any risks if I use insulating tape to "stick" the wiring to the batteries? By risks I mean the tape melting down or the like. I didn't quite understand how to apply heatshrink there, because the wires will only be in contact with the batteries' + and - sides. (Or maybe I got it all wrong, lol)
