I want to add the Vader breathing to my 1:1 statue.

I'm no electrical engineer, and everybody keeps recommending sound boards, etc...

There's gotta be an easier way.

I'd rather not use something that needs charging, but rather runs on batteries or plugs in the wall. I want it to be loud enough and not sound wimpy. I'd like to have a hidden push button to activate it.

I don't want to activate it from my phone on a standard bluetooth speaker.

What are my options?

Hytech toys has one that is near perfect.

Yeah, this one is cool. I guess their 2017 version is $199?

I don't need the microphone or any of the functionality to talk into it though. I'd prefer just a nice, high quality breathing sound.

Probably paying for stuff I'm not gonna use?

What about something like this? Hook it up to a powered speaker and a button to trigger a loop of Vader's breathing (or quotes, etc.)

Yeah, I know, haha...this is what I'm trying to avoid.

I tried something like this (a breadboard?) with my R2 and it works...but the speaker sucks and it was too much work.

I'm surprised nobody offers anything like this for sale here on the RPF. So many of us with lifesize busts, statues etc that I'd think they'd sell?!

It arrived on Saturday with very fast shipping. Simple plug and play with one 9v battery.

It is actually much louder than I thought, plenty loud enough for a statue displayed in a house.

The perfect solution for me....a big thanks to TheIronGAMING for giving me the heads up!

You are welcome. :)

You should record a video of how loud it is!

Does the hytech toys voice changer include the breathing sound, or is it just the voice? The 199 package? Looking for a better system for my Vader, I have the ROM/FX one right now, but it's a bit bulky for my liking.
 
Awsome! Looks to be one left for sale and im thinking about grabbing it for my comic-con suit. Thank Darthwhitey!
