« on: October 16, 2012, 02:29:45 AM »

I decided to build myself a double bladed saber with a single activation button, with a single sound board. I started with an Ultrasaber Phantom V3. I then bought a SaberIgniter R3 w/Truecolor, added 2 10W LedEngin RGBA's, used 2 18650 batteries which I soldered together to create a battery back. I planned to use 2 2w Bass Speakers, however that didn't work out as planned. I added 3 Illuminated anti-vandal switches. 2 vented couplers from TCSS and 1 3" extension also from TCSS. I also added a recharge port. Here's the video. Hope you like it! Grin

Liked and Subscribed.  I enjoyed the video.  Very nice job that you did converting the Phantom V3.   Do you have plans to add a 2nd sound card or are you going to stick with the one.  I personally liked the synch features you have going for you there.

Thanks Blue! I am not gonna put 2 sound cards in. Although the hilt is long, the Dominix V3 is tapered on the inside from the pommel end to the emitter end. So there is no way I could get the Sound card w/True Color and the 18650 battery pack in one side along with the speaker, without coring the entire hilt... When you say synch feature are you refering to the double clash and blaster effect or the fact that I can use either auxiliary button  to activate my effects?

That sounds like a good plan, Lionus, especially as you're going to keep it as a staff. It might keep things simple on the inside, but that thing is bad-ass on the outside! I subbed too! Can't wait to see what else you do with Binary, but it looks great as is!

Exactly the features I was referring.  I like the blades flashing in unison no matter what effect was applied.

I thought that if the hilt had one crystal and an effect blaster or clash happened wouldn't the effect be translated through the crystal to the other blade? IJS.. Wink

That is one mean lookin staff! Pic heavy is fine by me! You were right about the internal wiring that you mentioned in the video, Lionus. Kinda gives it that C3PO midriff look, so it's cool you left it that way.

So, point for authenticity as well as one for pragmatism. I'll have to wait an hour to give the second point, of course! Cheesy
