    "slaps hand to forhead" DUH! I totally forgot about your LED hasid!

    Have you used more than one? If so, was it the same color every time?

    I have also been looking into the LEDengin 10 watt. Has anybody had any luck with acheiving orange with the Amber?
    I don't know if I'd be able to use it though because the MR board can only take 6 volts right?

    OK, I hate to ask- Who is "BR"

    Here's an update of where I am at in the planning stage now...
    1) Still trying to decide which LED to use for an Orange...
    2) I have decided that since The Driver boards are no longer being made that I will just convert the two MR's I have and Buy some U.S. 2.5's.
    (can you sell a converted MR for $120?)
    3) Thinking about buying a whole Powder Coating system. gotta do some pricing
    4) Still looking for a switch... What do you guys think about the looks of this one... http://www.arcticmod.com/computer-mo...ing-orange.htm
    5) As the wiring is coming into place... What type of rechargeable batteries should I use? Nimh, or Li-on?

    I'm coming up with a "Budget" for the saber... It is quite a lot of money..

    EDIT:
    Hasid's LED is now out of the question because of the amout of shipping needed to get it overseas!!
    It is a nice orange but to much $$$

    So- I'm thinking of going with a RGB, But I also saw a RRG. Which is better to use for orange? Also, is there a preffered RGB that you guys like to use?

    http://www.alternatorparts.com/powder_coat_benefits.htm What do you guys think of this? No air compressor is a good thing...

    Seriously, an Amber Lux III is pretty dang orange, if you get one that's more of the middle BINs.

    Hey guys...

    I've decided on an LED...
    I bought a amber lux I and it was BIN 5. It is definetly(sp) orange, My other saber has a BIN 2 Amber... (thanks for the Nagging Eco)

    So, I'll try to get a BIN 6 amber...

    All the other stuff is still pending though.
