S-POV for 20" wheel and 3rd Battery w/brighter LEDs

Post by cafe_latte »

I saw in the instructions that the 3rd battery was needed when using White/Blue/ or brighter LEDs.

Since I have to cut the PCB down in size to fit the 20" wheels, does this still hold true, and if so where do I mount the 3rd battery on the shorted PCB?

You could use the J1 connector and bring in 3 batteres worth of voltage from a seperate battery holder to power your white/blue/green 20" wheels.
