    Default How do you distinguish your 3.7v chargers from you 7.4v chargers?

    I'm just looking for some creative input here. All the sabers I've built are 7.4v, so I have a few of the smart chargers floating around (http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/74...plug-P891.aspx).

    I'm about to build my first 3.7v saber, and I'll obviously be using a different charger (http://www.thecustomsabershop.com/37...plug-P890.aspx)

    I can't be the only person who will have both chargers lying around. Yes, I realize the voltage is on the back of each one, but I'm curious if anyone has any creative means of identifying their chargers so they can just grab the right one at a glance.

    The idea I'm tossing around is using a 1.3mm port for my 3.7v saber(s) and just change the charger to end in a 1.3mm jack. That would definitely make it impossible for me (or anyone else, which is what I'm worried about) to use the wrong charger for the wrong saber.

    Thoughts?

    Mark or paint one of them?

    Right, I'm just looking for creative input on how, specifically, people mark or paint them.

    It's got some nice groves on the charging block. Painting those would actually add a nice touch. For example, you could mask of everything except for the grooved area. And then put the paint on, and sand the paint off with a sanding block. That way only the grooves will be red.

    That would be pretty cool.

    Well, I decided to try it with a waterproof marker, but it's barely visible. Spray or acrylic paint would be better.
