    Agreed, though, ironically it's still simpler than my original plan of having 4 switches to change the color on the fly

    Once I get the wiring diagram sorted I shall post it here and get it checked out

    Probably true, though you'll have something now that looks like a saber and not a typewriter.

    LOL

    That is true

    This design will have 2 buttons, either 2 av's or 1 av and a small momentary switch.
    Thinking of putting the recharge port in the base of the hilt to hide it too.

    OK

    Been looking at wiring up this set up and this is what I have come up with so far, need to sort out the RICE port to



    Any pointers would be greatly appreciated

    It looks like you're trying to do color mixing with the CF6. The (+) wires you connected to the LED are not the correct ones. You'll need to flip the board over to find the correct location for color mixing pads. See page 34 of the CF6 manual for full instructions.

    Also, you have the recharge port polarity reversed. http://forums.thecustomsabershop.com...1391#post51391 has the correct diagram.

    I'm not quite sure what you're doing with the accent LEDs on the AV switches. Some of those lines are a little to dark to follow.
    We all have to start somewhere. The journey is all the more impressive by our humble beginnings.

    Does this make more sense?

    Well, at least I can see this one...

    OK, I would put the LED (+) of your main activation switch to the 3.3V pad, this way it lights up as soon as the kill key is pulled.
    You could run the Aux LED (+) to one of the accent LED pads (1,2, etc), you can also use the associated GND pad (between 4 and 5) to ground those 2 LEDs. Otherwise not bad.

    Of course the fun part will be watching you fit all that into the saber... I'd start practicing your soldering skills... A LOT.

    I am wondering if the royal blue is as nice if not better than the single die led wanting to run the two in series and use white for flash cash the single is bright and awesome can I expect the same result using the tri rebel?

    I'm not exactly sure what you are saying - you need to work on your punctuation.

    Running two Royal Blue dice in series should work just fine. If you have a sound board that handles FoC, White FoC shouldn't be an issue either.

    Sorry about that, I am asking if the royal blues on the tri rebel are as bright and pretty as the single di rebels?
