I found a toy lightsaber at a junkshop, and picked it up for under a dollar. After browsing the boards shown here, I've found out it is a 2004 'feel the force' Obi-wan saber, just like this person has: http://forums.thecustomsabershop.com...+force+obi-wan
So... Flashes on start-up, power-down, and clash, also vibrates on clash, no swing sensor.
Now this link from YouTube shows a way to get around the flashing, but he's using a 2010 board, I'm not sure if this would work on mine: http://m.youtube.com/?client=mv-goog...?v=CtE-ChC07bo
Basically, I have only a few problems to overcome: first off, the vibration is driving me bonkers, that has to go. And if I attach the LED through the speaker wire with an approprite resistor (I would like to have a white Seoul P4) I would also like to disconnect the original LED. So what would I do with the extra four wires I would have unattached at that point?
I also have the idea (please tell me if this sounds idiotic, I am very green at this) to attach the resister and LED to the negative wire directly out of the battery pack, and not run the LED through the board at all.
I will appreciate any help and advice that anyone with experience with these soundboards could give me.
