Hey, I'm ready to do my first hack. I have an 03 MR FX Vader ANH and I want to do a luxeon conversion. The stock battery pack is 6 AA's. I have read that the MR board drives the original blade array with enough current to drive a lux, but I'm worried about the voltage. Most of the single luxeon stars I've seen are listed around 3V. I would like to keep the  MR sounds and switches, so I don't want to get too far away from stock. What options do I have?

I should also say that I am not using a blade. I am actually making a high end themed flashlight. If I need a driver, space shouldn't be an issue since there will only be optics on the business end.

US doesn't offer mail-in conversions anymore, I'm afraid Undecided And I don't know if anybody here has already done such a huge modification...

i would check tutorials out on conversions  because the board is so old. The newer boards u can change battery setups very easily not sure about an 03 its literally 11 years old lol
