Long time Lurker first time poster.
I apologize if I'm asking something obvious. I read LDM's N00b! thread first and I've looked over all of the FX conversion tutorials. As far as I can tell I don't think anyone has just tried to use the guts in another saber. I figured since I already had the FX, and the blade is messed up I can gut that and save money on the PC2 board for the time being. Since some of the tutorials are out of date I was hoping to get some input on some of the electronics. First Does anyone know if the board/sensor will work with the Star LED. Also as far as I can tell the Vader is using 3 1.5v AAs or 4.5V. However looking over the threads I can't tell what resistance if any the board is applying or if it has a preferred range. I know that the Rebel needs 700mA. If anyone can recommend an energy solution and possibly a resister for the switch I'd really appreciate it.
Thank you.
