The title basically describes my ideal saber at this point. I'm planning that when I built it I'd use a Ledengin 10W RGBW, hopefully one of Skottsaber's FoC boards, a PC-L and a 16 pos DIP rotary, like Matt Thorn uses here - http://forums.thecustomsabershop.com...-Corbin-driver and here http://forums.thecustomsabershop.com...color-changing
I'm not exactly the most able electronics whiz in the world, but I can work things out with time, and there's no time limit on this build. My biggest question at this point is to do with the PC-L's voltage sensing abilities. My concern is that when using the DIP to switch colours, the PC-L would either react badly to a voltage change, or continue to supply the original voltage, which could be bad going from a green die to a red. If the board had to have the kill key re-inserted every time I wanted to change colour, it could get annoying.
I wonder if this would be a huge problem, and if it is, would I be back at using the same old transistor setup as used with the cheap Hasbros? That would kind of negate things like flicker from the PC-L, which understandably, I want to keep.
Any help here?
