how do i go about wiring a accent led to this hasbro board... would it be the led wire coming off the board as it shows in the last diagrams on page 1???

[equinox13]

please look at the diagrams i posted in this thread - the proper wiring for accent/switch LEDs is in both of them.

when you wire your accent Led use the original led + off the board but DO NOT use the negatives off the board (run them ALL to the tip42 base, emitter comes FROM the battery +, collector goes out TO the main Led).. run the - from the accent led back to ground. Now when your board is switched on so is your main and accent led's. Remember your meter and use proper resistors if you need them.. I hope this helps and YES go read and re read the hasbro econ thread before you start your wiring

so i have the vader sound board is it the same as what equinox posted for the obiwan???? and how do i go about wiring the clash sensor?

[equinox13]

the vader and obi boards are the same wiring, just a slightly different layout and different dimensions.

thank you very much what resistors do i use? i have 4.8 nimh batteries the diagram with the 2.1mm input and lux III led i dont want to get a buckpuck so i guess what im asking is what resistors would be used in place of the buck puck thank you ... if i can use resistors instead of the buckpuck i can have it built and pics posted tomrow thank you actually check that mostly built tomrow for i need a bezel yet and ran out of money to order one so i will have to wait untill then but i can post pics without the bezel or powder coating

[equinox13]

the resistor chart is here.

just leave out the buckpuck and put in the resistor that the chart tells you to use based on the color of LuxIII you're using, which is a 1.2 ohm 3 watt.

do i need a different regulator or just drop that regulaor in general ???? once i know this im done !!!!! on to powder coating then woot woot

[equinox13]

no you don't need the regulator. the NiMH will put out a level that's ok with the econo boards.
