With all the hallowing's exposed wires, it'd really go well with Kylo Ren's crossguard lightsaber (which has a very rough, exposed design).

How long would the battery last?

I know you're talking about the lightsaber but I'm interested in making the CPX version of the paintstick you posted. But I noticed that there doesn't appear to be a way to change the speed that you mentioned. Also, I've suggested several coding changes that I think could make this even better. I know you said in your tweet about it that Phil Burgess did the code. I was wondering if you could point him to a post I put on the forums to see if my requests are possible It's here: https://forums.adafruit.com/viewtopic.php?f=58&t=140222 And thank you!!

My calculations approximates 20 to 30 minutes of runtime with the 500ma/H battery.

Thanks @haughty quiver. Very well done.

#

thanks @haughty quiver! we need a "war cry" for that unicorn sabre. "Balancing the force, one rainbow twinkle at a time." [too long] 😄 🦄

heavy siren
#

My runtime calc of 20 to 30 minutes is rough but for a 500maHr sounds about right considering the current draw.

haughty quiver
#

@queen kayak just saw it now -- good catch, haven't updated it for speed changes on CPX other than the SPEED variable in code.

#

Thanks for doing the math @heavy siren :)

heavy siren
#

Great show @haughty quiver , the diffusion method is something I might use for one of my projects currently in the works.

haughty quiver
#

@heavy siren super, glad that may be of help

heavy siren
#

@haughty quiver Actually, the computer did the math, I just punched in the numbers. 😃

haughty quiver
#

even better

queen kayak
#

@haughty quiver ok ty. I don't know if the wishlist of improvements i put in my post is possible, but hopefully it is. i think it could make it much more powerful and user friendly.

haughty quiver
#

I think one of the 2200mAh cylindrical batteries would be excellent for this and then give you a couple of hours runtime @heavy siren

heavy siren
#

@haughty quiver Oh yes, that battery would definitely last that long. What a great way to tire out the child for bedtime. 😃

queen kayak
#

@haughty quiver with the code in it's current iteration, when you boot, does it automatically start playing the first image that is coded? and then if you have more than 1, does a5 play the next one? just trying to understand how i could apply it if changes aren't possible

haughty quiver
#

Thanks for the suggestions @queen kayak

queen kayak
#

@haughty quiver yvw, i'm just hoping someone can code it. far above me unfortunately 😩

haughty quiver
#

I'm going to try to add the button speed controls to the CPX version @queen kayak

queen kayak
#

@haughty quiver great ty!

heavy siren
#

@haughty quiver I hope the notification for the Hallowing being in stock comes before midnight tonight or MWOWM won't work. Tried to include it with my $200+ order last night but couldn't. I really like that Hallowing and want to play with it. Got a great idea for it.

haughty quiver
#

in the current config it either loops the image over and over or it waits for you to touch A5 to play the image. it doesn't loop through different images.

#

@queen kayak

heavy siren
#

And Adafruit just notifiied me that my order will arrive on Tuesday. That is just sooooo cool to be soooo fast. Gotta love Adafruit.

queen kayak
#

@haughty quiver so in current config if you have several images coded, and you don't have loop on, you power on, hit a5, it plays the image and stops. hit a5 again and it plays the next image?

haughty quiver
#

no, it plays the same image each time you hit A5 so that you can work on capturing the photo just right. Then, when you are ready to use a different image, currently you plug into a laptop and comment out the image name and uncomment the next one you want to work with. It sounds cumbersome, but it wasn't too bad when I did the main photoshoot for the guide.

heavy siren
#

Well people, it's 4pm and time to play House Husband before the wife gets home from work. MAKE a nice day! 😃 Chicago signing off.

#

Again, great show @haughty quiver Thanks eh...

queen kayak
#

@haughty quiver ok i understand. the problem is i'm going to try to do this on the go. with several images. so take it out, and take pics with several different images loaded. so plugging in and editing on the go wouldn't work for my application 😫

haughty quiver
#

I get that @queen kayak -- looking into it.

@haughty quiver much appreciated!

deep blade
#

Clever! Yah, I'm gonna need to build this 😄

#

But the rainbow is worth it!

haughty quiver
#

@queen kayak I updated CPX version of light paintstick, now you can hit the on board buttons to increase or decrease the speed of playback. Additionally, flipping the switch to the left and restarting the board puts into looping animation mode, flip to the right and restart for one-shot mode where pressing A5 runs the image one time.

the interval values aren't empirically correct, but I tuned them manually until they were correct

@haughty quiver I am curious as to why your show has gone from 1 hour to 30 minutes lately. Just wondering.

Because JP is everywhere, he can't be there always 😃

Yes, trying to optimize!

Plus, it makes for easier to watch chunks with Video on Demand (youtube, etc)

I see a 90 minute video runtime...I sigh. I think many things -- it's rambling, I don't have that much time to watch, etc.

I see a 25 -35 minute video? Yeah, that's something I can squeeze in before my next task.

Sorry I missed your show @hard hollow and @rocky reef - that's one good looking shirt! Sorry about the mic problems

hard hollow
#

@pearl shoal no worries! agreed, USB mics are better alternative.

waxen thistle
#

@hard hollow and @pearl shoal I'm a big fan of the AT2020 USB mic from Audio Technica. It's so straightfoward and awesome quality.

The plug and play USB I think outweighs a more robust XLR setup, until you need multiple channels/mixing/etc.

#

AT2020 USB + Rode deskclamp mic stand + foam windscreen as a "pop" filter. It's low cost compared to a pro audio setup

#

The monster sized Blue Yeti mic is fun.

#

I have one as well - It's great for group audio, but for a single speaker, the Raspberry sounds identical, and it doesn't show up in the shot (plus it's portable and uses a micro USB instead of a mini)

My dad had this custom build mosfet audio amp. How it works is that it has 2 mono channels one for left and right side. It uses irfp240 for the N-Channel. Each side uses 2 250UF capacitators. We connected the left capacitator wires to the right side and that worked. so we know its one or two of the capacitators. Does Adafruit sell 250UF capacitators? Sorry for the long question.

Weird phone ring

lean grail
#

Adafruit, if you arent gonna do an sd card slot could we have a decent chip for storage on the wing? A lot of people with custom sabers also tend to use a lot of sound files that they can switch between

waxen thistle
#

As nice as USB-C is, it hasn't reached market saturation yet -- it's on a lot of Windows and every Mac laptop...but it's pricier, bigger -- and worse off, it excludes everyone who's using legacy USB-A.

Whereas let's be realistic, nearly every USB-C user has an adapter for "legacy" USB-A devices they own.

What’s the #1 cause for.a 3D printer to go “spaghetti mode” like that?

Clogged nozzle?

in this case it was the spool, we didn't put it away properly

#

thanks so much for hanging out folks!

eager sapphire
#

Thanks for the show (and the explanation) guys!

pearl shoal
#

@eager sapphire For me it's that the filament got "crossed" - tangled to the point that it made a knot on the spool - that causes enough back-pressure that it doesn't extrude and eventually either snaps or clogs
