Hi SW fans. I thought you might like to see Part 1 of the results of a commission I recently completed to fit a light array and digitised sound system to a Lightweight E-11 Trooping Blaster. My system only adds a small amount of weight to the blaster. The electronics are available from me as either a kit or you can send me your blaster for fitting (a much better option).
The light array comprises a 10 LED white light array, a 5 LED UV (Stun colour) array and a Laser (yes, a real laser). The system also has a digitsing board which plays an authentic E-11 blaster sound effect. It's bright and loud and operates from a double trigger switch mechanism which is mounted behind the mock E-11 trigger.
The light array can be switched between modes or set to OFF some garrisons do not allow light effects while trooping. It all operates from 3 x AAA cells and will run for so many hours I can't offer an accurate time I do suspect it will last 40 or 50 hours from one set of cells.
I finally spray the blaster with a matt textured paint which simulates the original finish on a Sterling sub machine gun (which is where the E-11 came from). I owned a decommissioned Sterling so I know exactly how it looked.
I'm happy to make these kits for anyone with a Lightweight E-11 or pipe blaster (assuming there is sufficient space to install the electronics).
If you would like to commission me to build one these kits just PM me through YouTube and I'll discuss it further with you.
Thanks for checking this out and don't forget to take a look at my TKVox amp kits and Hovi-mix tip aerator speakers in action. Great sound and a great price for these kits which are available directly from me or via Ebay (higher price on Ebay to cover their exorbitant costs).

Update: 23.12.09. Yep, I certainly am. My first super detailed E-11 lightweight trooping blaster is now finished. I didn't fit it with electronics as I wanted to learn where everything would go. I have to wait for certain parts to be supplied in January 2010. Then, I will start producing the E-11's. There will be a choice between no electronics, sampled sound or sampled sound and light effect(s). Because of the cost of components, blasters will be on a commission basis only. Watch this space :)
