Aeon LE vs Aeon v3

[Master Nero Attoru]

I love US customer service.  Marlena already got back to me with not only an answer but a data sheet on the Obsidian Lite.  3.5v to 5.5v is the operational voltage.  A single Li-Ion is 3.7v, so the board would run, but you wouldn't get any light without some kind of power extender.  So, you're back to 4 AAA batteries but I don't think it would work in a V2 with the standard AAA battery holder.  Too bad, it would be a good board for the V2.

Why would you need a power extender, does the board have some kind of built in driver that's designed for 6V alkaline setup?  If you could send me the data sheet, it would be awesome.

I'd love that spec sheet too please as I still think LITE will be my best option for my QGJ

Actually, I've been thinking about that too.  Marlena said in the e-mail that the board and LED won't run on a single cell, but I'm thinking it just might.  I have ran boards with that kind of power requirement before with a single 3.7v.  I still want to get one and mess around with it.  I love to tinker.    If it works, that might be my go-to for getting sound sabers from UltraSabers, to save a bit of money up front.  Too bad they don't sell the LITE board separately in the store, I'm thinking it would sell.

I don't see why the data sheet would be a secret, since she sent it to me freely, so here it is guys:
