    Default Troubleshooting Help

    Hi saber makers. I’m hoping you guys can help me troubleshoot an issue. I’m taking my first crack at a plecter pixel saber and I’m not getting the blade to light up. I’m using a Prizm 5.1, Vader’s Vault blade and the hilt side connector from the shop. The battery I’m testing with is an 18650, 2400 mah. I’m assuming the issue is with the wiring so I’ve attached pictures to see if anyone spots a mistake I made. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!!!!

    Your problem sounds like the battery. You need a 10A discharge for a Neopixel blade.

    Thanks FJK. I do have the 10amp, 3200 mah from the shop as well. I'll try wiring that and see if it solves the issue.
