@@matthewdelgado9250 I believe I used a 24ga wire in mine. There are different style of crimps for the JST-XH housing that accept different garages, but total range is 22-30ga for the housing. The pins you choose will have specific ranges defined, but it seems like most will accept a 24-26.

@@aaronmorris9352thank you very much!

I don't sell lights themselves. These are just mounts for the Govee lights. They're RGB, so they can show any color you want and control the patterns, etc.

On my pack I just have 2.5” Dayton speakers. However, it sounds like the newest recommendation is the LaVoce FSF030 www.parts-express.com/LaVoce-FSF030.70-3-Full-Range-Woofer-8-Ohm-293-705?quantity=1&srsltid=AfmBOooGx0plXLX7Mj88B6CZSqKHwDQKjnwuz_mSGRYFXj1lj_aeD-tW

@@duncancosplay7839 Yes, I plan on putting information in my git repo as I get farther along into the process. The current code and things will also work just fine on another arduino platform like a arduino Nano. Ultimately though, I’ll be moving my code into the Pi Pico C/C++ SDK

Yes, I just did this mod today and funny enough this video popped into my feed. I simply cut the wires on the spirit wand, ran the black and white to a toggle switch that I mounted in the ion arm in the exact spot where he did. I dead lined the red and orange wires for the proton blaster sound effect and the led at the tip of the spirit wand. They are still technically functional, I put electrical tape on the ends so if I want to find a way to restore those features later on it as easy as wiring them back into the circuit. All I wanted was for the charge up and shut down sound effects plus the cyclotron lights and the power cell lights to function. I don't need a blaster sound effect as the Haslab wand has awesome sound effects plus vibration. I also reused the tube already on the spirit pack and mated to the Haslab wand. I might do an Alice frame upgrade next. I am very happy with it now so we will see.

I have a a new circuit board in the works that will allow attachment of the 1984 wand with no modifications to control the spirit electronics.

@@Guaranteed_JET Yes, I’m still testing and refining things and determining how to kit out things and what options to provide. Currently I have all the lighting figured out, and am working on the sound expansions. I should be rolling out another test revisions of the PCB shortly and then will probably start opening up orders once I get the basics determined. Are you looking for something that also does sound in the pack, or just the basic spirit to 1984 interface?

@@aaronmorris9352I mainly was interested in the interface between wand/pack. Inwould be interested in sounds. Im having issues with my spirit electrics. The gun and light are stuck on. It just keeps shooting and flashing the light.

@@brynthetech Yeah, it’s a bit tricky to measure everything and line it all up. I have been trying to come up with a solution to align a drill guide for the aftermarket boards, but haven’t been too successful yet. I can also provide a template that someone can print out to at least align the two holes, but getting the perfect alignment for where the holes are in relation to the mounts unfortunately right now is measurements. Some ideas I had were putting tiny magnets in the bolt holes and then having a pair of magnets to snap to their position when you put the motherboard over it.

@@KyleDavis-t4x I’m not currently doing commissioned work for these, but you might want to contact TerrorDogDesigns on Etsy as I know he’s done a few of these depending on requirements.

@@NoB8751. Oh I’m not selling this one as it’s my personal and development pack for my Etsy shop.

@ lol I know I wouldn’t sell it either I was just Kidding

I haven’t a created one yet as I was probably only one of the one people to do a DIY version of their product in a spirit pack. Now they have a “lite” kit that’s a lot easier to do.

Just got my prototype PCB in today and have already started doing some testing. Once I’m happy with that , I’ll put a small batch up for order. Probably in about a week or so.

Excellent

@@aaronmorris9352 Just checking in. Was looking at your ETSY page. Thank you

@@DanteH1cks I’m working on that one, but most likely I’ll have some configuration option that people can update via computer or WiFi. I was thinking about making physical switches, but there’s probably going to be people who want different configs. I can also provide custom firmware for people’s different configs.

⁠Awesome. Please let us know when you're releasing. Will this also have an option for an updated speaker?

@@DanteH1cksI put some parts on the prototype board to allow audio out for possible future versions. My initial tho if t was that most people are just going to use the stock spirit electronics/sound with the Hasbro wand to make the other sounds. But I do want to consider having a continuous idle hum.

@@wegman8 Let me get that put up for you. I have it in TinkerCAD but will put it up shortly!

@@Sleikis I’m hoping about a month. I’m finalizing the hardware design and should be ordering test boards in the next week or so. I’m also still working on the software as I need to add additional options.

@@aaronmorris9352Awesome, can't wait! You mentioned in the video about adding integration with custom packs, would you happen to know off hand if there will be integration with the newly released Spirit life sized electronic kit from Frankengeek Laboratories, or at the very least if the wand might be able to draw power from the board with this?

@@Sleikis My setup would be intended as an alternative choice to his solution, and not designed to integrate with that. One of the limitations of using current sensing to work with the Hasbro wand unmodified is that you can’t really know which buttons exactly are being pushed, so all the extras like video game mode, music mode, etc, just wouldn’t be possible. But my board will have the ability to add your own LEDs and possibly even some basic pack sound. I may also add support for the stock spirit wand, although the main goal is to pretty much let the Hasbro wand handle the sound and just the board handle basic lighting.

@@aaronmorris9352 good to know, thank you!

Any update on these?

@@sans8meme Not at this time, but you may consider reaching out to TerrorDogDesigns on Etsy, he’s done some of these for others.

@@maddoglive I didn’t make any video on mounting the Alice frame to the motherboard, but it’s secured with 3 bolts and 3 spacers to the stock motherboard. I attached the motherboard with both the original screws and custom 3D printed motherboard mounts that I sell on my Etsy store. Regarding the wand to pack, I have a 3D printed v-hook I use on the pack that I also sell on my store.

I’m using regulated 5V from a USB battery bank. I know the wand can tolerate that much. I’m not sure about 5.5V though.

@@mikatikander2449 I think that depends on what your goal is, what electronics kits you select, etc. I’m making a board that will allow you to use a stock Hasbro 1984 wand with the stock spirit electronics, but will also have LED upgrades if you want. Otherwise, with GPStar the option is pretty much the Frutto LEDs or a LED ring.

Hi. I am gonna use Gp star kit with my spirit full size pack. I was wondering that does the frutto leds plug in easy on spirit cyclotron, without any dremeling, or just go with the Led ring?

@@mikatikander2449 It looks like they have 3D printable mounts to hold the Frutto LEDs on the spirit cyclotron. github.com/gpstar81/GPStar-proton-pack/blob/v5.3.4/develop/stl/pack/Spirit%20Full-Sized/Spirit%20Cyclotron%20Lens%20and%20Frutto%20LED%20Mount.stl Otherwise, the LED ring might be a good fit as well.. you can get a 45 LED 130mm ring for about $12.

@@KungFuCartoons Yes, I used these “batteries” with some M3 bolts and nuts. www.thingiverse.com/thing:3160060

@@Guyverx117 I’m working on the PCB design now. I’m trying to keep the cost around $40 for the kit depending on options.

​@@aaronmorris9352any updates on this kit? It seems like the perfect easy solution.

I bought from another vendor on Etsy but they also have them on GBFans.com

I may on another one of my videos. I haven't owned the car for a while now, so I haven't been managing the content muuch.

@@YTY203 For this setup, it was around $200. GPstar just started offering a “lite” package that includes a pack board and a few other things that can talk to an unmodified 1984 wand for less now.

Yes, I used a regular toggle switch. When you toggle it on you have to toggle it back off as it is a momentary sense circuit. When you want to power it down, you have to toggle it back on then off.

@@MFLuder2012 Let me change that.. I originally turned off international orders because Etsy doesn’t calculate combined shipping on multiple items and I had to cancel orders as I ended up paying more in shipping than I was actually making on the item.

@@aaronmorris9352that makes sense. Hopefully one day you will be able to ship internationally and I’d love to get them - - I just realised you updated the shipping on Etsy. I get paid Friday and I’ll be ordering them straight away

@@wickedd365 I actually ended up doing a GPstar kit in the wand and DIY gpstar in the pack side. I have some other videos of how I did that as well. I fried the electronics in the 1984 wand messing with things, so GPStar was the only way to “repair” it and upgrade at the same time instead of buying a new wand again.
