One of these days we really need to collaborate on a project - Or a you scratch my back I scratch yours sort of arrangement.
 Wink

Yep . . . sounds like a plan  Cool



I'm pretty sure what I quoted is what I got as that us the setup I have. Now that you've pointed that out, I wonder if that means that my g channel is actually pushing both green LEDs. I see that split at the resistor. Am I correct in this line of thinking?

If both green positives are wired together, and both negatives are wired together, then I'd say that is what you've got there . . . there may not be a resistor, just both wires joined under the heat shrink . . . Smiley

Emory kindly agreed to sell me an RGBA LED module in the past for the same price as a forum colour (with wires already soldered to all pads), but that was before TFA saber rush, so it would be best to email Emory at [email protected] and ask if they will do that at the moment . . . OR, you could order a module with a colour like AB with Orange FoC and that should get you an RGBA (all you may need to do then is solder wires to the r +&- pads on the LED star), but best to check with Emory first . . . cheers Smiley

I wonder if they'll ever offer rgbw and rgba modules for sale in the future.

Yes, although an AB with white FoC setup should use an RGBW module . . . if you carefully remove the LED module and unscrew the heatsink you can check the LED with the pics I posted on previous page . . .

Oh!  No kidding,  thats good to know!  Hey, I sent you a PM asking for specifics on what  parts, resistor setups etc... you used for your RGB MK2 build,  but that was before I knew that my LED was RGBW.  So i apologize in advance for hastily sending that without looking through the forums first.  It would be great if you could tell me exactly what resistors to use to get SY, BH and whatever else the RGBW LED lends itself to.  (And for the record, I have very little electronics expertise,  and am definitely a noob at sabers in general... So i apologize for my ignorance! lol)

BTW, point for this!
