It's Star Wars Day (May 4) so check out how I made a lightsaber!
I'm a huge Star Wars nerd, and so to "celebrate" May 4th, I buckled down and completed my lightsaber project. This project has been in progress for almost 2 years (on and off) and it was finally time to finish it up. It uses a Teensy microcontroller and a prop shield to play sounds, handle motion detection and drive a LOT of LEDs to create the blade. The lights animate up and down with button presses and the sounds react to on, off and swinging the saber.
My code is available from
github.com/iliketomakestuff/i...

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!!

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!

OK...yet you can get something done. I can't do diddly squat with Fusion 360. I just don't get it. I've tried to use their tutorials, but it's like "well, since you're an expert at Solidworks you just need to know the differences". UGH. I have so many ideas in my head of things I want/need to build and I want plans...I'm better off getting my old drafting equipment out and scratching some lines right now.

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.
