I am trying to set up another saber build (AXE), and was trying to figure out a charging/data transfer issue. I have very limited space due to the shape of the haft, but might be able to squeeze everything in where I am putting the sound board.
The questions I have:
Is the PCB board needed for charging, since the battery (button type) already has one (or am I mistaken on that)?
Does anyone know the dimensions to the one listed on Saber Armory’s Website, so I can go ahead and implement it into the print?
The PCB (or something like it) is required for charging.
Neither the battery, nor the proffieboard has a charger on it.
One of the smallest options would be to just wire in a small JST connector for the battery, and when you need to charge, you plug in the charger there. You would just need a small external adapter from a barrel plug to a jst connector.
I contemplated JST connection, but I don’t have any room around where the battery would sit. If I do go with the charging unit above, I will likely put the charging port in the top of the haft, as the speaker is in the bottom of the haft.
