To answer your previous question of it being the rarest and most obscure parts used, you must know that the propmakers had acquired a lot of military stuff from local junkyards; amongst them a complete Derwent Rolls Royce Jet engine hence the access to the balance tube connectors for the ANH lightsabers and also the use of many 'IG-88' heads in the cantina scene ... behind the bartender, before it became the head of the bounty hunter in ESB.

P.S. a Derwent Rolls Royce Jet Engine approximately will set you back 12K probably in GBP's for 9 emitters.
