Received mine today and it doesn't fit the booster.
 
Re: Obi Wan ANH Saber Crystal Chamber Kit ( update 1/21/16 plz read post # 474 )

Ill Check with Roman on the threading of the older booster, but from what I recall was that when he started making the boosters with threading they havnt changed. What I was referring to was the older boosters that were not copied from the original but I will call him tomorrow to verify. Keep letting me know whos works and whos doesn't,

Thanks guys for your understanding! :)

I received my crystal chamber today and have it installed. Before I take pictures, what type of battery does the switch kit take?

Thank you! I'll pick up some batteries tomorrow for it.

As for getting it to fit; I did have to do some dremeling and stuff to get everything to fit smoothly together. But it works! Hopefully tomorrow I can post a photo of it with the crystal all lit up.

What size hex wrench is needed for the set screws?
 
Re: Obi Wan ANH Saber Crystal Chamber Kit ( update 1/21/16 plz read post # 474 )

Ill Check tomorrow at the Hard ware store,

The set screw is a 6/32. I'm not sure if it was a 1/16 or 7/64

Is there any way to check which booster I have? I think mine's from 2014, but I'm also down for the non-FX version so I don't know if that makes a difference.

the only difference was that the non fx came with bolts, other than that everything is the same.

Please note: The saber does not have all the details installed yet (i.e. D-ring, transistors).

Caution: There are some sharp edges. Be wary when handling. I am surprised the shop would not deburr their work.

Does the clamp spacer remove with the single set screw? I've gotten the screw it, but the spacer doesn't want to budge.

Also, how are the transistors supposed to fit now?

Edit: I see that one should be filed down, but what holds them in? Mine screwed directly into the clamp spacer before.

You will need to use a nut on the inside of the clamp to hold the back transistor. For the front you will need to glue to the outside surface.

Had some problems in shipping. It appears usps was a bit rough.

Thanks - my booster is threaded so I guess it is one of the newer ones then.

Mine does not fit and I do have the new booster. I bought my entire saber from Roman about two months ago.

It's awesome. Just does not fit.

Damn, Chrijack! That freaks me out. I don't even know if I'm getting mail today, due to all ice we're under. But that's pretty major. :eek

TRDNiteLife, yours looks awesome!
