    Hasbro sound board, as in the economy cheap or a hasbro FX.
    If it is the economy cheap, you need a tip42 PNP transistor.
    Is you AV switch momentary? It needs to be momentary for the economy board.
    If you have the FX, it needs to be latching.
    If it is lit, you are going to need a resistor to protect the led in the switch.

    Wires and heat shrink are always good to have.

    Hope this helps.

    if you're using an econo board, you'll need a 5V regulator as well.

    what about the hilt parts? are you using PVC or MHS or sinktube? do you have a design in mind already?

    You need BuckPuck or register for LED.
    If you use Hasbro electronic lightsaber sound board, you need PNP type transistor(TIP42).

    You should edit your post instead of double posting.

    Check out the diagram on this page for wiring your eco board. http://forums.thecustomsabershop.com...w-DVD-Tutorial
    As far as the momentary vs latching, check your parts list from TCSS. It should show which one you purchased. Other threads show how to wire the AV switch and led in it.

    here's a couple more diagrams to look at with the econo board that i haven't tucked into the main thread yet.

    with recharge port, buckpuck, and lit AV switch

    without recharge port

    the battery can be replaced with whatever you plan on using - in this case 4AAA NiMH which will put out max of ~5.2V and nominally 4.8V - the wiring for the rest stays the same unless you're using a resistor for your LED, in which case you should refer to the main diagram for the main LED wiring.

    Thanks Equinox. I seem to be missing the little things!
