    Default Somebody Please Double Check!

    Hello all,

    This is the wiring schematic is for my first build. I will be using the following parts:

    - NBv2
    - 3.7v 18650 li-ion
    - tactile switch
    - 28mm bass speaker
    - tri-cree b-b-w
    - SC recharge port
    - 0.47ohm 0.5w Resistor x2

    Any feed back is much appreciated!

    I see no issues with this diagram.

    The great thing about your build is that you can add Flash on Clash at a later time, all you'll need is a PEX, resistor, and a little wire.
    We all have to start somewhere. The journey is all the more impressive by our humble beginnings.

    Awesome, thank you very much!

    I was double checking my resistor values and I noticed something...

    The LED I purchased from Saberbay Etsy is rated at a forward voltage of 350mA not 1000mA like the one offered by TCSS.

    So if i recalculate my resistor value for a forward voltage of 350mA I get 1.7ohm 1.3w instead of my original resistor calc at 0.47ohm 0.5 ohm. If I round to the nearest value I would be using a 2ohm 1w resistor on each of my blue led. Please let me know what you all think, I really don't want to get this wrong!

    Here is the info from Justin on Saberbay Etsy:

    Info for the Blues

    Illumination Color: Blue
    Wavelength: 485 nm
    Luminous Intensity: -
    Luminous Flux/Radiant Flux: 45.7 lm
    If - Forward Current: 350 mA
    Vf - Forward Voltage: 3.1 V
    Mounting Style: SMD/SMT
    Power Rating: 3 W

    Info For The Whites

    info for the WHITES
    Illumination Color: Cool White
    Color Temperature: 10500 K
    Luminous Flux/Radiant Flux: 360 lm
    Color Rendering Index - CRI: 65
    Luminous Intensity: -
    Viewing Angle: 125 deg
    If - Forward Current: 1050 mA
    Vf - Forward Voltage: 3..5 V

    UPDATE: Never mind it can be run at 1amp

    Your original calcs look right. The symbol for voltage is V and mA is milli ampares
