Power Functions Light Shortcut

[Trevor Sandy]

Hello.

A part/shortcut for Power Functions Light does not exist in the official or unofficial LDraw library.

I created a shortcut (88701.dat) by adapting a copy of Philo's Electric Powered Up Light (22168.dat) shortcut. 

To compete the Power Functions Light shortcut, I changed the primary cable to s/58124s03.dat from u9218.dat, the light cable to u9028.dat from u9392.dat and the middle box to 62501c01.dat from u9422c01.dat.

My questions are:
1. What Author should I use to submit the new shortcut ?

2. I could not find anywhere a LEGO part number for the Power Functions Light but Rebrickable, see URL above, lists this item as a SET with the number 8870-1 so I used this ID. Is this a reasonable part number to assign this shortcut ?

You are the author, so it should be you. If you want to give credit, you can do so in a history line, e.g. "derived from part xyz"

should change id to 61930 imho

I agree. LEGO PART 61930 Light Unit, LED with Black Cable, Power Functions is a listed part on Rebrickable.

It does not look like I have the level of access to submit a part as I do not see any means of doing so in my dashboard.

If anyone who does have this access cares to submit part 61930, I have attached the components in 61930.zip.
