Hello!

I recently acquired a nice hilt for my Nihilus costume. On my first troop this past weekend though, we had a Rebel Legion Jedi tag along with us, and his off the shelf Ultrasaber blew mine out of the water in terms of brightness and sound. I want to convert to a tri-LED set up if possible, move to a 4x AAA battery pack instead of the 2x that the saber has, and add sound as well.

Most of these tutorials are based on MHS stuff or require the use of a blade holder. Am I overthinking everything? Shouldn't I just be able to get the tri-LED that I want, solder the switch to that, then solder the leads to the battery pack? I'm more concerned with getting it to light up for right now, and I can go back and add sound later when I get more confidence with this.

Any help is greatly appreciated

Thanks
