Title: Grab bag, sound addition? Post by: That1GrayJedi on November 20, 2017, 03:54:27 AM Whats the easiest way to add sound to a grab bag saber on a budget? I'm starting to really like the sentinel I got as a grab bag saber and want to add sound to it. but without spending 150 bucks to buy the obsidian board and batteries etc.

And, if 'they' do it, you have no worries about killing your warranty Title: Re: Grab bag, sound addition?

Especially with the latest 15% off sound special and free shipping for USA. :)

Post by: Dauntless Seven on November 20, 2017, 07:15:55 PM Thanks for that helpful information. It really has to be a special saber for that person or a higher end one to warrant the expense of sending back for any upgrades. :)
info point 8) Title: Re: Grab bag, sound addition? Post by: That1GrayJedi on November 21, 2017, 02:48:52 AM Anyone know of any other cheap options? or have lite setups they want to sell me hahahaha
Title: Re: Grab bag, sound addition? Post by: Dauntless Seven on November 21, 2017, 07:19:38 PM Depends upon your saber electronics skills. A few members such as Calculon and Kouri have taken the sound board from a plastic toy replica and fitted it into an US. Suppose you would have to construct a different style of battery pack and board chassis.
Good luck and perhaps check out some of the sound saber customs starting with those two. :) |
