Battery Size - Naigon Electronic Spark Color SC2-R3 Setup Manual

 Sayno
 Tenergy
These batteries have the best life and have the most consistent voltage output, allowing for the best experience
through the entire life of the battery. If you choose to use another battery your experience will not be guaranteed.
Specifically when using the Z6 LED, the only battery that Naigon's Electronic Creations recommends is the AW
3400mAh 18650 here: http://www.lighthound.com/AW-18650-Protected-3400-mAh-Rechargeable-Lithium-
Battery-_p_4149.html, or the AW 2900 mAh 18650 sold from lighthound here:
18650-Protected-2900-mAh-Rechargeable-Lithium-Battery_p_3671.html. These batteries will not trip when using
all 6 die of the Z6 with Spark Color 2™.
Another good choice is the KeepPower with the 3 module protection circuit, as that battery can withstand high
drain. These are usually on Ebay; just search for "KeepPower 18650 3400mAh" and pick ones that have the good
protection circuit.
Finally, Solo's Hold just released a new Panasonic battery that has the 3 module protection circuit mentioned
above. These are great as well and are highly recommended: http://www.soloshold.com.

3.1.4. BATTERY SIZE

The best battery to use is an 18650, space allowing. If that cannot be used, then an 18500, 17650, 16650, or 17500
should be used, in that order. 14xxx batteries and 18350 batteries are not recommended due to their shorter life,
and because those batteries may not be able to output enough power to run 4 die of a High Brightness LED
(HBLED).
3.1.5. LED CHOICES
When using Spark Color 2™ with a 3.7v power source the LEDEngin LEDs will not work well. This is because
LEDEngin's green and blue dies require a forward voltage of 4.0v for maximum brightness. Thus it is highly
recommended to use the Z6 sold here at Naigon's Electronic Creations. Other choices are the X4 LED sold by Lucien
Kane of the Imperial Royal Arms forum or a Tri/Quad Rebel or Triple Cree. The Z6 and X4 LED is by far the easiest
to wire as the positive pads of the LEDs are already bridged with the Z6 being even easier since the diode for the
red die is already built in.
3.2. SPARK COLOR 2™ LAYOUT
Before getting started, it is important to familiarize yourself with the layout of Spark Color 2™, TruDrive™ and all of
the pads on the board. This will help in wiring up the board for use in a saber.
The following diagram shows the important components of Spark Color 2™, with an accompanying table describing
what each component does.
