    Default Clash-on-Flash without a Crystal Focus?

    I'm sure I saw this discussed somewhere, but I came up empty when I searched.

    Has anyone succeeded in creating a decent flash-on-clash effect without a Crystal Focus? I'm not talking about the blinking you see on toy sabers. I'm talking about using a multi-color LED (RGBA, RGGB, custom Rebel) and having one (or more) of the chips light up only when there's a clash.

    Obviously, it would be fairly easy to create an extremely brief flash just using a clash sensor. The trick is extending the flash long enough to make it effective.

    Would it be simple-minded to suggest a capacitor as a possible solution?

    There's always a bigger fish.
