It's been way too long...

Anyways, Besides the fact that my 10 year old Luke MHS needs some updates and repairs, it, and it's Buttered Toast are working well with it's tired battery and blue "just get it working" LED. The green one is dead and has been for some time.

Also, I want to build my daughter a lightsaber for Christmas. She's 7, so I'm also toying with the idea of making her build it herself. Ether way, I was hoping you guys could get me up to speed on the latest tech that I've missed over the last few years. Battery tech, sound/LED controller tech, LED's... That sort of thing. I see there's a few new choices in each area. What are their strengths and weaknesses? What tech is compatible, what isn't?


Other than that, how's things?
