  • hi i need help i am in suid africa. we don t have it here

  • @littelgremlin This may actually be a surprise, but... I know of at least ONE person who DOES own a Crystal Focus LED Saber... and he is indeed in Africa! He goes by "Skottsaber" if I am not mistaken... :)

    My wife actually visited Africa to help aid sick folks + give out tons of food, clothing, water, electronics & health care some years back... in Ghana, Africa. :)

  • so you say dont use solid core wire just because you think its harder to strip?

  • @Michaud12 No, solid core wire more difficult to solder to fine/small solder pads, and it has a tendency to be less malleable and break after it is bent this way and that. Not to mention, you can "tear off" solder pads more easily with solid-core wire if you're not careful.

    In general--do your best to use the stranded wire... otherwise, it's your own risk regarding this type of project. :)

  • what parts did u use and were they from the custom saber shop greytale?

  • @Michaud12 Nope, not at all. Then again... extra features and "bling" are what make an LED saber really shine. If you'll pardon the pun.

  • @greytale

    ooh ok so its not required

  • @Michaud12 Vibration or "feedback" in the hilt. Similar to that of a phone or pager, etc.

  • what the motor for again?

  • Can you connect it to the normal Hasbro or MR LED strand? Or does it have to be a luxeon?
