Thread: Attaching a light bulb...

  1. #1

    Default Attaching a light bulb...

    For my saber, I want to attach a light bulb so it will show on the outside. How do I wire the regular(no sound) setup to allow this?

    1- Where were you thinking of mounting the light bulb at ?

    Or were you meaning a Led bulb placed inside the hilt and pro-truding through the side ?

    I think he means to backlight something from inside the hilt, like I was going to do with my saber.

    Except have the crystal on the outside in a clear box and have just a nonfilter light bulb light up my smoky quartz crystal. Any ideas?

    Yes, forget the lightbulb. Use an LED. It works just like the luxeon leds. Wire it in parallel with a resistor and DPDT switch.

    If you need more of an explaination just ask.

    Before posting did you check the Thread Index?.
