Hey all! I haven't started this build yet, but I was hoping for a check on the wiring diagram. I "feel" like I am missing a resistor somewhere, but not sure where based on the CFX's manual information. (The manual is FANTASTIC, so I am sure it is something, if anything, I am missing).
And how in the heck do you get a larger picture to show up here as the attachment?!?!
To post pics, usually you host it offsite, and post a BBCode link.
For the Neopixel blade, the resistor goes on the blade side PCB

That’s the main thing. You might need other resistors, but until you fix the picture, I can’t see it well enough to tell you. 😉

Diagram looks good to me! So for resistor is fine in the picture you have. If you wire it as shown(with the additional bridging of the negative lines on the board) you don't technically need the kill switch because the board will go down to deep sleep mode

@FJK - The diagram is showing two momentary switches. Would the wiring be the same with a latching in place of a momentary? (The one on the right in the diagram) And if not, is there a diagram with that setup?
