traditional PWM drive are repurposed to the neopixel strip drive so if you wish to mirror the blade on a RGB switch, mod it to put a pixel inside. That's what I've demonstrated a couple of month ago, I hacked an AV switch for this purpose.

Wow thanks Erv, I just finished installing a Prizm 4 in my son's new saber for Christmas, and I just opened the new 5.1 that I bought for my own lightsaber walking stick (undergoing it's 3rd regeneration) and I can't get over how much smaller it is. It is actually too small to fit in TCSS's battery and nano biscotte chassis. Brilliant work, this will allow me much more leeway to fit the board above the battery in the chassis I am designing.
Once again, well done Erv.

Quick question Erv, when i push the aux button on some fonts, the blade turn off with the bolt and 1 second later come back to the original color, is that a parameter on the bolt functionnality?

Make sure you define your bolt size and location correctly in regards with the blade lenght (i'm assuming that's a pixel blade here)

Erv how do I disengage the multi bolt sound on this board ? Every time I turn it on it does the bolt clash and won't stop.

Edit the bolt.txt file. Either remove all timelines or use on bolt only for each timeline

I looked and I can't find that file.
