    Default Vader hilt parts

    I am getting a heiland 3 cell flash to repoduce a vader hilt and wanted to know if these parts will fit this unit. Also Would these parts fit any of the parts from tcss?

    those parts would most likely fit the original heiland since they are "exact replicas" but you would need tim to do custom work for them to work. however, custom work by tim is inevitable with heilands since he doesn't have a conversion kit for them

    he has. you would need a heatsink, led, optics, power source, sound card, and a switch to make it work along with the blade holder

    The only custom work would be the blade holder. It's a simple lathe down to fit the tube.

    Yes, those parts would fit the heiland. I don't think you should buy from Parks though... it'll take forever to get.

    ok where is a good place to get those parts. I know the emitter is sold here but I like the look of that one better. or even a chrome one.

    It's slightly more expensive but Blas-tech isn't a slack-off like Parks.

    If you want sound though, it might be better to grab everything from off of an MR.

    i may have to. all the parts together would cost more than I paid for the heiland.

    Oh, I know... it's a pain in the arse.

    When I made my Heiland Vader it costed more and I didn't have very many places to go to. In fact because of the quality part I got I need a new clamp.

    I'd suggest gutting an MR Vader too because you can get the switch box out of it and save plenty of work finding where else to mount a switch.
