Want to pass on the nifty idea I can up with for running an accent led off of a NBv2. I wanted to put an accent led in the pommel of my saber to light up when powered on. I was having issues getting the wiring run from the LED terminals on the NB due to space in my ribbed extension. I remembered the trick to get blade flicker when using a cheapo sound board. I went ahead and spliced wires into those connecting my speaker and ran them to the accent LED in the pommel. I didn't use a resistor since the output to the speaker isn't very high. Now i get this cool flicker effect out of the pommel as well as light flashes when the boot sound plays. It is a great way to add some cool effects to your saber with little effort. This would work from any sound board i would assume. If ibget the time i will upload some pics and maybe a video. Juatnwanted to share this with others.
