Title: Removing my 4xAAA batteries and putting in buckpuck/li-ion.
Post by: kamoosekazi on March 03, 2019, 02:01:13 PM
How hard is it to just solder all of this in myself?
I've replaced several battery holders, since they get destroyed during combat, and it looks like the buckpuck is just wired in right after the battery pack.

Is that all there is to it? Battery holder > buckpuck > LED/Switch?

Points!
Thank you very much! This answered more questions I never even knew I had!
I'm not a "hands on" kind of guy, I typically just fix the super easy things... but as the years go on, I've had to learn how to do some things (for instance, never soldered before about 6months ago) for my sabers to save me time and a little bit of money...

Gonna have to look at all of these videos now and upgrade my toolkit lol
