SubBlade Proffie and crystal chamber

With my Starkiller saber it looks as though the crystal is wired in line with the blade. As such I set the Blade config as below using the SubBlade feature but it seems as though the blade partially lights up when off and crystal is on. Is there any amendments I need to make to the config to fix this or is this just down to how the saber is wired?

Try these 2 styles in a preset, if you see any red on your main blade they are wired in parallel not serial so you’d need to rewire to prevent off effects from showing on main blade.

Are you sure they aren’t wired in parallel?

Thanks both, looks as if its wired in parallel then as can notice some slight red using that profile when looking down where the neopixel connector is which makes sense seeing a glow when off at the bottom
