SaberBuilder_render.jpgWelp, I've reconsidered my original plan of a 10w blue saber. Here's what I've come up with so far. I plan to bridge all the diodes together so I can just turn them all on with one switch to be as bright as can be. btw, is there much of a brightness difference between Rblue/Rblue/White and Blue/Blue/White?
I'm also not giving up on the idea of an RGB saber. If I did that I might get two more a/v ring switches, one for each color. And of course an extension to fit all those buttons and batteries and future sound boards. xP I may op out of that though due to cost. Besides, brightness is of paramount importance for this saber.
