Iam just wandering as to what these could be used for other than just saber decoration?

[Jay-gon Jinn]

I've seen people install those in their saber in a "window" in the hilt, and then light them up with a second led when the saber is turned on. A very cool effect.

[Ryma Mara]

Yeah ive seen people do that with the idea that the saber is powered by the crystal like in the films. But I got to thinking if something could be setup like what Ultra does. used the crystals instead of filters

[Strydur]

Thats not what Ultra does.


A force crystal (for looks only) is provided and will match the LED color you choose.

[Ryma Mara]

I could of swore I read somewhere he did that.

[xwingband]

Nope... decoration only.

For Ultra's sabers, you just stuff the crystal up the hilt.

No... No you don't... it's a small trinket to display with the hilt.

I like the idea of just letting them stuff it up the hilt :shock:

Oh...Thats what I do with my ultrasaber. I just stuff it up before the battery box and pommel :wink:

[xwingband]

And let it rattle? :shock:

[Angelus Lupus]

what's the point of putting the crystal inside where it can't be seen?

[Jay-gon Jinn]

Right...unless you've got a hole in the side of your saber to see it, there's really no reason to stuff it up the hilt.

[MasterStoney]

maybe people like to stuff it up the hilt :shock:

[Angelus Lupus]

Do I detect innuendo?
I do think it would be cool to have an exposed section of hilt where you could see the crystal. How effective would one be as a filter? Or would it scatter/block the light too much?

[elrond.406]

And let it rattle? :shock:

:o It doesn't rattle, since there are thick wires from the battery holder to the rest of the setup 8)

[xwingband]

No offense but the rocks are rattling in your brain if not the hilt.

:S I dont get it

[xwingband]

That's only more proof. I hope you crack up when you get it.

[elrond.406]

:? I probably never will get it...

[james3]

oH SNITZ!

I spilled coffee everywhere on that one.




Now we truly understand.
