I've been seeing lots of comments like "oh, I could do it too if I had an expensive 3d printer". There are other options. Not all 3d printers are expensive, but If you wanted it printed you could use a service like 3dhubs or shapeways or even find a local makerspace. Also, it's basically a tube so you could try pvc pipe as a base, then add details on top. I would challenge you to use what you have to make stuff you want. You can do it!!

Revenge of the 5th

The joy on your face when that lit up! Made me so happy that you were happy! I have a hilt that I made last summer which has been just a decoration... until now. This video has for sure inspired me to fit it with all the electronics and make it look great! Probably the only thing I would add would be a quick disconnect between the blade and the hilt that way its easily portable and I can still have it as a decoration without the blade. Overall this was awesome and made my Star Wars day that much better!

My fave moment is the happy laugh when you switch it on when it's finished. Totally cool diy.

So, how's the battery life? Reading up specs for a 144LED/m WS2812B strip, I found that it will use 43.2W/meter. That's 8.6A current. That's probably peak current with everything at full brightness, but I suspect 4 x AA NiMH cells are not going to last very long. I'm working on something similar and planning to use a 18650 LiIon cell for power. In my project, I estimate the peak power draw will be about 20W (65 cm long strip / 3.7V supply). Last year I built a prop that had 24 WS2812Bs, an Adafruit Trinket (3.3V) and it was powered using a single 10440. The LED strip is rated for 5V, but will work fine with a slightly lower voltage. The lights were almost never at full power, so battery life was around 10 hours.

Great work, your ideas are totally awesome. I was trying to make one with a laser inside, but LED's are such a better way to go.

Great instructions! I'm using 1" copper piping for my first attempt. This video is perfect for understanding the overall construction. One about those components and the programming would be very helpful. Thanks
