Hi. This is my first post.

I was wondering if the 64 stock LEDs inside a Master Replica blade can be replaced with 64 brighter LEDS, such as Makoto Tsai's or the next best thing, without having to do any wiring in the hilt?

I've seen lots of conversion kits to put LEDs in the hilt, but none for simply upgrading the stock LEDs.

Thank you for any information.

The V/I characteristics (forward voltage, forward current) of a Makoto are different than the stock MR(Hasbro) LED's. The MR sound board and battery pack may not properly drive the Makotos to their full potentional.
