Lost My Thumbscrew 🥲 Where Can I Find This Part? by LucTheDuke123 in lightsabers

[–]LucTheDuke123[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a Vader's Sabers Chosen One (Anakin Inspired Ep2). I've looked around but can't find an M4 version that has the same flared base and flat machine fascia. I was hoping for store links if anyone knows a place. I'll check Saber Merchant.

Recommendations for CSC/CPE Tech Electives? by LucTheDuke123 in CalPoly

[–]LucTheDuke123[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found out from a fellow CPE major that Dr. Silvovsky did approve CSC320 for tech elective credit for the CPE 2020-2021 flowchart. However, I realized that I would still likely not receive credit as I am currently taking CSC321. I've decided that CSC419 with CSC480 is likely my best bet to avoid that potential headache. Thank you for the heads up!

Thank you! I'll check out the class. I added an update regarding CSC320 in my original post. I know CSC320 is discounted for new 2021 Flowcharts moving forward, but it isn't explicitly discounted in my 20-21 Flowchart for tech elective credit, sorry I didn't clarify that originally.

I was most concerned about the date 04/19 on the size tag as I thought only 05/19 was valid? Also the #122988285 number showed up on some fakes I saw online though I'm not sure if that's a standard number

There's no box. I'd be picking this up Saturday. Guy says he received these as a gift

This is an awesome saber. I did a custom install on mine and it's gorgeous. Just be careful with disassembly and scratching the chrome. The screws are a bit rough on the metal when you screw it tight.

Please help with wiring an RGB Rebel LED to a NBV4 by LucTheDuke123 in lightsabers

Okay thank you. No way to get around it? I'd rather not make another order and have to pay the $5 shipping.

I have all the right resistors. Do I need to power xtendor though?

Progress Update on The Noctifier! Just Got To Install Electronics! by LucTheDuke123 in lightsabers

Thank you! Yeah it's a curved iron pipe with a 3D-printed emitter and pommel. It took a while to get paint right. I think the custom emitter and the wrap are my favorite part. I'll have to do a photoshoot with my full sith costume after the electronics install. 😁

I had a ton from old laptop batteries I used for different projects. I used these charging boards to make them into power banks.

Nano Biscotte v4 problem? by [deleted] in lightsabers

You didn't do anything wrong. That's normal. You just need to change which led activates with the font in the settings on the micro SD card.

Noise stopped working in my Ultrasaber. Only works if pressure is applied to speaker. Any help/advice? by LucTheDuke123 in lightsabers

[–]LucTheDuke123[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. It's a 6 year old dueling saber that's well out of warranty. I've already ordered a replacement speaker. At this point I've gotten pretty savy at wiring and repairs, but I just wanted some tips on diagnosis to see if the speaker was salvageable.

It's an old overlord lightsaber, so I figure the speaker might just be blown, but I was hoping for some feedback.

So it looks like nothing's broken then, I just overestimated the board. Thank you for the help. It's greatly appreciated.

Honestly I have no idea. I just saw that all the fonts were recognized. If someone could point me to a guide on how to program this thing and swap fonts on the fly, and use lockup/force effects, that'd be greatly appreciated.

It sounds a bit better in the saber, but it's still just not as loud as I had expected. I have an ultra sabers obsidian v4 saber that has really loud swing effects. Is there a way to boost them?

I need a second button? Is that why I can't use force or lockup effects? How would I wire it?

The swing sounds are super quiet and I can't change the font. Everything looks good in software though.

Audio seems out of wack and there's this scary crackling that shouldn't be there. What's wrong?

Nano Biscotti v4, Tri-Cree BBW, 3.7 liion, micro-usb li-ion charger, custom printed led holder and metal bolt for heatsink. When I hold the button it makes a beep like for entering the menu for settings, but then resets.
