Holy zombie threads, batman! A topic revival!
This saber is back in my possession from the original owner for an update to the sound board and the battery solution. I have it on the bench and it's dis-assembled:
The previously installed soundboard, an Ultrasound 2.5 on the left, and the new replacement, a Petit Crouton 1.6:
The bin 4 amber Luxeon III will be replaced by a Ledengin 10-watt Amber instead:
The battery solution will be up to the owner, but can go two ways:
I will either use removable Li-Ion rechargeable batteries, or go with a custom Li-Ion battery pack....shown is the extra pack I use for CS-X, a pair of 14500's with a pcb. This saber can actually fit a pair of 14650's, which will handle the extra current load of the 10-watt with FoC enabled.
More to come over the next few weeks as work progresses.
