Inside the blades are NeoPixel LEDs which are connected to an Adafruit Feather BLE 32u4 micro-controller.</p> <p>A 2000mAh lipo battery will provide several hours of energy and can be recharged over USB.The blade is 86cm (34in) tall and the whole sword weighs just under 1 pound.</p> <p>You can connect to the Adafruit Feather through Bluetooth. The Adafruit Bluefruit LE Connect app for iOS or Android lets you change the animation or color of the LEDs.</p> <h3>Print instructions</h3><h3>Licence: Creative Commons - Attribution Category: Props Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong> Ultimaker</p> <p><strong>Printer:</strong> <a href="http://amzn.to/2Bg7tS2">Ultimaker 2</a></p> <p><strong>Rafts:</strong> No</p> <p><strong>Supports:</strong> Yes</p> <p><strong>Resolution:</strong> .18</p> <p><strong>Infill:</strong> 10</p> <p><strong>Notes:</strong></p> <p>We used the .8mm olssen block nozzle to speed up print times for the blade parts.
