Good time to ask this as it is exactly what I am workin' on now.
For , firstsonofsolo gave me a hollow rubies (thanks again, dude
), and there was more than enough space to fit the chip, LEDs, and batteries into it. HOWEVER, I did need to solder on some wirse to the battery leads and put the batteries and alongside the chip instead of where they were suppose to go (essentially on top of the chip.)
For , I used terminal fettler's hollow RF AND stalk. I tired putting the entire contraption into the RF, but I ran out of room (primarily because of the batteries.) So here's how I finally got it all to work:
- Cut the LEDs off the chip (make sure you know what end is + and what end is - before your do this.)
- Remove the battery springs.
- Solder wires onto where the battery springs were and run them down the hollow stalk.
- Solder wires onto the LEDs (make sure the wires are long enough to reach into the hollow area of the RF.) Then use electrical tape so that each lead does NOT touch another.
- Install the LEDS, run the wires you just soldered into the hollow area of the RF where the chip is, and carefully solder the wires where they are suppose to go.
I hope this helps. I wish I had seen the post yesterday because I just glued the RF cap on. Sorry I can't illistrate with pictures.
