Hi, folks. I've been at it again. I've gone pro! Well, sort of. Somebody actually commissioned me to build this one. It was a friend of a friend kind of thing. They saw a PVC saber I built for a family member and, upon realizing that lightsabers were "real", they offered to pay to have one built. They said they wanted something inspired by Luke ESB so after a few iterations, we settled on this design concept using MHS parts:
I was already working on a prototype of an accelerometer-enabled Arduino lightsaber control board, so I decided to just finish building it and toss it in this build.

Lost of soldering later, I got the Cree XPE2 module linked in via MOSFET and fired it up.
Cram-fu? Oh yes. It's ain't no NB, but it fits.
And, done.

Enjoy!
