Redoing my lightsaber

 The good folks at Adafruit made a revision to the feather wing light saber. based on their PropMaker RP2040.

The original:

orignal

 The Lightsaber Prop-Maker RP2040 is much smaller and fits better in the hands.


side by side

The single feather requires a lot less room than the stacked feather and prop maker feather wing.  I was able to re-use the blade and neopixel strip from the first build.  So I only had to get the prop maker rp2040 and the speaker. 


It worked pretty good straight away



The odd lighting at the end of the saber is from the code not being configured with the right pixel count.
