If anyone has any insight as to why the grounding for the recharge port/emerald driver and lead ground are different, that would be greatly appreciated.

I've been trying to work out what the actual difference in current flow or voltage is but it is escaping me.
might have to ask my man Rob... Undecided

I think it had to with leak current that caused the AV switch to slightly light up even when the saber was off...but I don't remember exactly.

Do you recall which was the more correct?

I'm not 100% sure, but it should be the upper diagram. The one with more ground connections to the battery pack.

You can savely try both layouts, though, before the final wiring. It shouldn't cause any damage to the components.

I came across this while searching for a 100% drawing:

http://www.saberforum.com/index.php?topic=20367.msg318821#msg318821

However, the pictures have been blurred by photobucket, and DarthDaddy hasn't been online for 5 years. So I can't ask him to upload it again. Sad

But if you follow the things in the posts, starting with the diagram I provided earlier in the thread, you should be able to get it 100% right Smiley

I found a set of diagrams online a few months back. If you'd like I can do a quick search on my laptop and post them.

Honestly anything helps. One of my goals is to compile an exact plan for the wiring for future use.
