blade holder ? and more

[vortextwist]

how many cut outs are in the blade holder syle 4?
What is the size of the MR board and what size of battery holder do I need for the MR?
I'm trying to get away with using as little of a hilt section as possible. this was my idea:
Pommel/ ?" center/ V-groove/ 2.5 ext/ V-groove/ blade holder style 4 and mhs claws mounted at the end pointing towards pommel. lmk what ya think and what complications might arise.

blade holder #4 has 4 slots in it i believe

the MR sound card is a hair over 2 inches and you would be best off using 3 AAs like they do with the stock sabers

4 slots is true

Four is correct.

What is the size of the MR board and what size of battery holder do I need for the MR?

about 1" x 1.5"... for batteries you've been here enough to know to look for that. It's not like that's an obscure question.

Little... of a hilt section... I'm not getting this. That'd be a long hilt. Pommel- .75", Double female- 3", V grooved- 3.7", 2.5" extension, 2" blade holder... add it up. It'd work though.

I guess I was thinkin of corbins board when I asked about the batteries, even though I knew all the MR stuff fits in the MHS. When I said smallest hilt I meant to say center section.(sorry about that) I was just worried that having 2 ribbed sections, there wasn't goin to be enough clearance for the electronics. (becouse the id of the ribbed sections is smaller). I did add it up, It would be about 15" depending on how long I need the peice between the ribbed section and pommel.

the mr board will fit in the ribbed section with no problems, corbins board has to be sanded to fit in most of the mhs parts, remember too that with the mr you can run either a k2 or 3w direct off the module or run a secondary to the led and get it to optimum... xwing and james can give you two different methods of wiring a direct flow if ya ask nice

[vortextwist]

Thanks and I will ask nice

[jjshumpert]

[vortextwist]

[jjshumpert]
