Honestly, if the effect is there, it is too quick to see.  My question to you is how are you achieving the effect that you obviously can see on your end and, does the blade get brighter or dimmer on clash as I cannot tell from your vid.

Looks like he's just running the clash sensor in the circuit for the amber die.  I can barely see it in the video myself,  and that is how it looked when I did it with a regular 5mm accent led for "blade Impact" indicators.  Almost too quick to see it.

Nice job on the conversion!  It looks and sounds very good!

I kinda saw it a little...but I really had to look for it. Even then, it was a bit tough.

How did you get the board to "boot" with a quick sound after you pulled the kill pin?

Overall, it's a nice job and a great conversion regardless. The 3/4 thick walled blade seems to have pretty even brightness as well.

Great saber man.
Nice sight when you look from behind to the emitter and you can see the light of the blade through the tiny windows.
Well done.

In order to use a momentary switch, I add this flash-light PCB which is not tested by anyone in this forum.
http://www.yodobashi.com/ec/product/100000001000798807/index.html

For some reason, when i pull out the kill-key, my saber will sound a little and flash a little.
i guess that effect will be byproduct thing, because of useing this PCB.

If i post a diagram of this saber, will you guys figure out the reason of this effect together?
