    Default two activation buttons on NBv3 possible?

    Saber Schematic.jpg

    Based off of this picture, I want to have two activation buttons in my graflex 2.0, one in the activation box (ESB style) and one up top in the red button (TFA style) was wondering if you can just solder another switch to the soundboard to get two activation switches or would they not work in tandem with each other?

    You could always hook them both up outside the hilt to test them out.

    I definitely plan on testing everything before I put in the hilt, just wanted to see if any wiring experts knew for sure if it can be done with the NBv3

    It can be done with any momentary or latching switch in a circuit. Just think logically about how you would wire the switch so that depressing either one closes the circuit, and I'm sure you'll be able to figure it out

    If the switches are wired in parallel, it'll work without any issues.

    If you wired them in series, you'd have to press them both at the same time to activate the saber.
    We all have to start somewhere. The journey is all the more impressive by our humble beginnings.
