    You might want to wait. Although the Rebels aren't being stocked anymore, their replacements should be on the way fairly soon.

    That's exciting news, FJK!

    FJK, will those be the SinkPAD-II Rebel Tri-Star, or a different LED altogether?

    They will be the new Tri-Crees.

    Oh, good to know. Time to go download a new datasheet!

    I've been looking and haven't found any documentation for tri-Cree LEDs. *grumble* Anyone got a part number?

    Be patient, once they are in house, Specs will be posted. You can look at the singles in the store for an idea of what's to come.

    Thanks. (Patience is not my strong suit.) Already waiting for the NBv2 to be back in stock. Hopefully both will come in at the same time. I'm trying to draw up my wiring diagram so that I can finalize my design and order everything I need at once. I'm also tracking down as many datasheets as I can for my lab book as I work through this.

    If you are using a NB, the math should be fairly simple.

    Agreed. Simple math. I went from knowing pretty much nothing about lightsaber circuits to my first draft of a wiring diagram in two hours. Did the divisions for the resistor values, but not full node voltage/current loop analysis. It will be easy, but I want to check it against the specs for all of the parts. Need datasheets to do that. I will order parts after it looks good on paper.
