    Default Mounting an L.E.D. in a 7/8 ths inch Parks Obi TPM

    I've been gathering the parts for a Parks Phaeton " Obi Wan TPM " with an inner diameter of 7/8ths inch . I'm using a 7/8 " Blade from TCSS which is a perfect fit but I'm not sure how to mount the L.E.D. I'm using a NB v2 with a power extender for F.O.C. and a Tri rebel BBW.
    Any tips on mounting the L.E.D. in this size tube ?
    Thanks, Don

    I read their FAQ and they don not do sound so there might not be enough room for a speaker and NB.
    If their emitter is designed to use luxeon hexagon bases it should work. However this forum is associated with a different company. Parks is not TCSS nor is it MHS compatible, as far as I know. Effectively you have asked a Cadillac dealer to help you with your Toyota

    I would contact them.

    Lets not go that far. Darth Obi Don, I have done many of these, and it takes making or adapting a heatsink/optics holder to your needs. There have been MANY of these conversions done and you can see build logs on them over at FX-SABERS which is a forum more universal for the hobby as it pertains to all sabers and not just MHS building. However, I will say that I usually remove the top several inches of the inner tube

    If you're new, please take the time we all consider just as precious as you and READ!
