Build a NeoPixel LED powered Energy Sword with Bluetooth controls! Read the full build guide on: https://learn.adafruit.com/halo-energy-sword?utm\\_source=youtube&utm\\_medium=videodescrip&utm\\_campaign=3dprinting

In this project we\u2019re making a 3D Printed Energy Sword from the Halo video game series. Inside the blades are NeoPixel LEDs which are connected to an Adafruit Feather BLE 32u4 micro-controller.

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.

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.
