Hey, everyone.
A few months ago, I stumbled upon a lightsaber combat group at a park walking distance from my house. I made a visit to The Custom Saber Shop armed with more enthusiasm than knowledge; my intent was/is to make a stunt saber with the only nod to fanciness being an illuminated switch. I wound up with a modular LED and Li-ion battery (1050 mah, the 14560), along with a non-modular long anti-vandal latching switch (green, to match the blade). I now have the switch wired with the Dyna-ohm resistor to the positive terminal, and the negative and positive wires connecting to a JST connector ... I left the other three terminals for the moment.
Since the MWS buckpucks have been out of stock for quite awhile, I'm wondering what options I have to wire it to a different buckpuck. I don't have any plans to add sound, though a recharge port might be in the future.
(If this matters, I did pick up materials for making a chassis, too. The discs I ordered are to accommodate a buckpuck and the battery. Oh ... and I know the long AV switches are on the long side, but I have solution to that involving a bit of copper tubing and a 3d-printed bit of plastic.)
Thanks for any thoughts!
