Accurate Hero ROTJ Vader Belt Replica

you also left me scratching my head with you last post, what do you mean with: "the correct RS component enclosures2?, are the Hammond ones wrong? if not... what are we missing?
The actual screen used ESB/ROTJ belt boxes were RS Components branded enclosures. Hammond has enclosures that are all in the same ball park size-wise, which is why many folks use them. But again, the discussion about the Hammond enclosures doesn’t really belong in this thread.
 
Willing to share any info on those connectors? I have a fetish for vintage connectors
Yeah, they are 2-pin Cinch Jones connectors. A slightly different variety of these connectors was used on some of the Boba Fett costumes. A fellow who goes by “Ord Mantell” on the Boba Fett Builders Forum and TDH recently did a write-up about them.
 
The lights on the belt box are Rafi indicators lights?
The red lights are Camdenboss panel mount indicators and the green lights are Saia-Burgess panel mount push buttons switches. I’ve posted purchase links for them before elsewhere on the forums here. They are still available from RS Components out of the UK, which would have been the same source for that production purchased from for the OT.
