Proton Pack 5

So I've got some updating to do for you all.  Here are some of the pieces wired and lit up. Specifically the power cell and the cyclotron.  The wiring isn't the cleanest in the world, but it gets the job done.  Thinking back, perhaps 1:7 wasn't the best idea when trying to wire in resistors....oh well.

And the front of both pieces

The front of the powercell has a thin piece of plastic i procured from a 3 ring binder.  The binder is cloudy clear plastic and perfect to diffuse light.  I've used it on my Millennium Falcon model (which sadly is still in production)  It helps give the power cell a nice glow as opposed to the harsh blue light of the LED embedded within the piece.

Let there be light!

Same...not lit...

BLUE!

And the two side by side.  These two pieces are essentially ready to be put onto the mother board once i secure the wires within and make sure nothing is going to touch.  I'm also on the look out for a power source holder.  I was going to use the crank case as a place to put the switch and the batteries, but I'm starting to think it's a bit too small.  So I might fashion a small external box on the back that wont be too noticeable.  Any ideas?  

So this is my progress so far.  It's coming along really nicely.  For those wondering it'll run on 6v, 4x 1.5 v batteries.  It should be enough to power the thrower, and the pack lights and not burn out the LEDs too quickly.
