Thanks...
I got the electronics installed and I got a video but the crappy camera did not show the blade pic very well. I have a photo but it doesn't show the actual color either but you can at least tell its pink.
here are the specs.
-US 1.1 in lower section set to red/amber mode
-MR speaker
-2.1 recharge port in pommel
-a single protected Li-Ion 18650 in the upper section
-pro light RGB from a Joe Jedi saber with the red and blue in parallel (no resistor on either color)
-5* lens and holder form TCSS
-red ring AV switch hooked to system power (pull the kill key and AV lights up)
-I made the bezel for the AV switch. I have been making them for the inside so the nut has something flat to screw on but decided to adjust my set up better for a cleaner finish good enough to put on the outside. Turned out pretty well
-old MR blade that I just pulled from her old saber, it has about 6 ft of poly in it
She should get plenty of run time with the 18650
She absolutely loves it. now I just have to save up for a special stand from Haloncustoms
oh and here is the pic
tomorrow if I have a nice clear day I will take some more detailed natural light pics.
I am really happy with the way this turned out. Its nothing fancy but is comfortable and will be dependable and fun to play with. My youngest daughter wants me to do one like it for her now. She wants hers to be blue (her favorite color). I have a color called blue ice explosion which is a flip/flop color (looks black at angles etc) I may use or may use the dormant blue from pbtp. That is later on down the road though (probably next month).
