Hi guys: Yesterday I was watching a puppet's play with my little daughter. The puppeteers used a black neon light to create a reflecting effect on some other colors...So I began to think: "a lightsaber with this blade will be great!!" After that I can remember anything else of the play... (does this looks familiar to any of you? ha ha ha).So I was wondering if anybody knows if there is a Led that can resemble a black neon light? It w ill be awesome to have this effect in a lightsaber...what do you think?
Bye

That would be Do-Clo's UV setup. used with a green blade it looks quite good.

Plasma ("neon" tubes) are awful for dueling. You can't even tap them together.

i saw a link on fx sabers.com to a plasma site and they said you could tap them together VERY gently, they looks sweet man, they are incredibly bright and have sound which is uncommon for plasmas

Thank you guys but plasma is not an option when you have little children in the house. I was thinking in one star luxeon led that was like a UV...

Probably lighttech... you CAN tap them GENTLY, but I wouldn't do it any more than you would with a crystal. It's friggin' glass![:0]

Lighttech works because their sound is external. Plasma throws off a lot of interference. Putting my plasma next to my Anakin ROTS makes it go nuts.[:0]

on the pics and description of it they said that it has internal sound, they even showed the speaker and such. does littech have removable blades for the plasmas, these ones did

Beats me... plasma is basically a dead technology now.

If it was internal it had to be sheilded as plasma does wacky stuff to sound.
