what is a Quazar board? Since 90% of resistors seem to be 10k & caps 0.1uF why dont you try these values whats the worst that can happen? You could have a new smoke machine

yes but I dislike to add another battery,which could fall off or go flat (just my opinion)

Yes, the battery is a pain but rather that and have opto-isolation.

i have no complaints with the board just make sure the battery is secure and fully charged
i used tie wraps to secure it in a cradle and if they are in good condition i used mine in a two day event and never had to charge em
