    Ok I got it, but does the board provides to power the accent LEDs is 3.3V. Or 5.5 to 11 V / 2.5A ?

    Not bad at all. You will have quite a bit of Dremel-Fu ahead of you.

    Just give thought to how and where you're going to connect that to the main hilt.

    Hey guys! Hope everyone is have a good weekend. So this is what I got for the resistors. Let me know if I'm off and I'm having a hard time with the power xterder resistor. If there's any input let me know. Thanks guys

    16mm Anti Vandal Latching Green Ring Switch = 1 ohms, 1/8W
    Red LED indicator = 68ohms, 1/8W
    Green LED indicator = 68ohms, 1/8W
    Power Xtender™ 2.0 = ?

    Depends on what color(s) you are going to use for FoC. Important, that information is.

    To answer your other question the accent pads are 3.3V, 20 mAh.
