Petit crouton wiring question

"Headers"?

Hmmmn. That's interesting. The petit crouton 2.0 I got from TCSS a few weeks ago came with several connections pre-soldered, and most of them were "through the hole". I had to fix the aux switch positive, which came undone, soldered that through the hole, wired up the second accent led, the ground pad was being a beach so I de-soldered that, forked the ground wire to take another wire, and soldered it through the hole too. Then I finished the R.i.c.e. port soldering, stuck it all in the hilt, and viola! It all works like a charm. I may not be the example of how to flawlessly build a saber, just sayin the petit crouton is pretty sturdy in my experience so far. It survived me at least.

"Headers"?

Those pins sticking up off a circuit board that you plug cables onto are 'male headers'.

I'd include a pic if I weren't on my iPhone and hadn't just awoken. Do a google image search for male header. First link. That's what they are.

Edit: oops I used bent not straight. It's more compact that way.

I'm happy taking your word for it. I was just curious. I'm sure I'm fine with not running any part of "male header" through Google. >_>

Uhm yikes! I didn't see it that way..... though FYI nothing unusual showed up in the results... though I do have safe search enabled :P
