Thread: NBv2 + PeX2.0 Wiring Check

  1. #1

    Default NBv2 + PeX2.0 Wiring Check

    After looking over the nano biscotte manual, I decided to make a diagram detailing the wiring so that I would have a guideline when I'm actually soldering things together. Since this is my first time working with FoC and wiring multi die LED's, I'm not sure if I got everything correct.

    My goal is to have a more blue-ish purple blade, as opposed to a more pink-ish purple. Additionally, the accent LED would be off when the blade is deactivated due to the kill switch.

    The parts in the diagram are:
    Custom Tri-Cree LED - http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/Cu...LED-P1035.aspx
    Momentary 16mm Anti Vandal Green Ring Switch - http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/16...itch-P585.aspx
    Power Extender 2.0 - http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/Po...r-20-P652.aspx
    Single Cell 18650 3.7V 3400mAh - http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/Pa...tery-P853.aspx
    Switchcraft 2.1mm Power Jack - http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/Sw...Jack-P822.aspx
    Premium 28mm Speaker - http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/Pr...eaker-P77.aspx

    Any input would be much appreciated!

    The switch ground should be attached to the board, otherwise, everything looks good.

    Thanks FJK!

    Just to be clarify, when you say the switch ground should be attached to the board, it's the Power Extender you're talking about right?

    I've updated the original post to reflect the changes in case someone else would be able to find it useful.

    No, I'm talking about the NB, or wire that comes directly off of the NB.

    Sorry, after rereading your first post I don't think I completely understand. What exactly do you mean by switch ground?
    I thought it was the AV momentary switch but I think you're talking about the recharge port?

    The wire you have going from the recharge port, to the PEX and to the switch. It should start on the NB NOT the Recharge port.

    Got it!
    I've updated the original diagram to show the hopefully correct changes. Is the updated diagram reflective of what you were saying in the first place?

    Thanks again!
    First few posts asking for help on the forum were intimidating, but I'm learning and hopefully will be able to help others further down the road
