It seems you'll be using the Jupiter wand light kit, as you posted here:
My question is-- Does the tip extension linkage lever on "retracted" position clear the big diagonal board of the thrower kit that sticks out from the bargraph inside the gunbox? This is something I could see being a real issue. I've actually secretly wished that if Christian ever does a V.2 of his thrower kit, that he has the bargraph on a ribbon cable or something, so there's not this whole board sticking in the way.

(Sorry to momentarily hijack the thread, this is just kind of something I've been saying needs to happen for a long time, rather than needing 4 or 5 modules)

c.fago wrote:It's a 12v lamp, so you cannot use the Jupiter kit to drive this. I used a 12v RGB LEDs strip controller to get the flashing effect. It also means that you need a 3pdt push button switch to activate the barrel light, the bargraph display and the stream sound at the same time.Hate to be a copy cat but that barrel flash is amazing. You are an innovator in every sense. Im at home now working with a top mount external flash from my old nikkon ,but i think what you did is easier ,can I get to to give up the bulb model no and flasher circuit your using, where they came from . And good job you did.sir.

Once installed in my barrel assembly:
Light on:
I can assure you that live is awesome. It's so bright that it looks like there's a big continuous spark, almost a blaze, inside the barrel.
