    Yes, Hasbros (cheapy ones) need a momentary switch. The Hasbro FX sabers take a latching though.

    Default Rechargeable Battery Packs

    TCSS doesn't have those battery packs in the store anywhere that I could see. I want one, but where do I go/ how do I make one. Also does that pack save space compared to the spring type plastic battery holder?

    There's a thread in this board called "battery pack making". Follow that to build a pack. It saves a bit of space as compared to a plastic battery holder.

    I really really like the 2 AA size holder with the speaker and sound board mount. Huge space saver.

    I do the 2 AA holder with the board epoxied to it and the speaker on the bottom with Tim's speaker mount. I like the set up, but if I use a battery pack then could I put a recharge port on the opposite side of the sound card? (that's my hope since I have little vertical space in my saber.)

    Nope. The charge port goes too deep into the hilt.

    Is there a schematic that shows how to hook up accent leds to a MR/Hasbro anikan rots board, that will activate when the kill key is pulled?

    Just wire the LED from the + and board - of the recharge port with the appropriate resistor.
