Nice! By the switch placement I'm guessing you're left handed? The blade looks really nice. What did you use for the blade? Any plans or consideration of future modification?
im rite handed
the blade is LED Trans White Show blade 1" stock
the only thing i wanna add is a kill switch to the Lithium Battery
and change the yellow accent led

Good solid and clean design bro, you should have used an 18650 for longer run times and in hilt recharge. That way you don't have to open it up again. Nice bright blade also. Good stuff matey!!

when i made my last order the pcb for the 3.7v where out of stock, i should have got the charger for it anyway but im not smart enough to think like that haha. but i will make it recharge one day

Great to see it finished mate. Good idea about sourcing wire from alternate places. I would love to get a charger to make my hilt fully enclosed to (or not to have to at least change batteries every 20 minutes) Perhaps we should both order from TCSS at same time and share postage, then we could just mail stuff along the road to each other? I think you would be about 80 mins drive from my place. (Might be too complicated, but I had wanted to suggest it)
