I kind of like it the way it is really. Well maybe it could be a little more enlarged in the insides, can't really use the AA battery holders as they are now. (Well its not like it doesn't fit inside with just the battery holder but when you try it with batteries it won't.)

I voted for option one for two reasons:
- I like how the 0-rings fit the outside
- I like how a 4AA battery pack fits nice and tight, on the inside

I agree with Eastern.

I voted for option 1.
Keep them exactly the same just offer different lengths of them

I say keep it the same. If you need or want anything diffrent get it custom made.

I agree..From a business standpoint that makes sense.

Strydur when you say 7" section and "other MHS" on the poll do I understand that correctly that this would be a new 7" MHS hilt? [I hope so].

If so would it be the v-grooved 'grenade' type? [I hope so even more!]

The present MHS hilts already come in plenty of different circumferential groove options but
I'd love to see a 7" MHS hilt with 'grenade' at the other end from the switch hole blank area...it doesnt matter to me if the grenade v-grooves are a bit shallower or the same depth.

BUT, I also look forward to future LED solutions requiring bigger battery packs so the closer to normal MHS ID the more likely to fit bigger battery solutions I'd think?

For the same reason making a new MHS hilt longer...say 9" maybe...might also be more 'future proof'...but I'd be VERY Grateful for a grenade grooved 7" MHS hilt section for now :-)

Anyway thats my 4 cents worth...I'll wait to see if I understood what you are considering correctly before I vote.

I had some pics of a crappy design with a ribbed/vgrooved combined into a 7" hilt section with different designs but I cant for the life of me find it.

Or just do all three types? We're all harlots for wares, so it just gives a bit more variety!!!

Hasid could that have been the green/blue bladed 'mini-Luke'/'mini-Obi' Jar-Kai matched pair I posted wayyyyy back on the wish list?

I cobbled those together in Paint modifying the very first MHS template but didnt have a v-grooved grenade section at the time to reference since they were then out of stock so didnt know there were 6 longitudinal grooves meaning 2 or 3 would be visible at any angle thus only did one row on the pic DOH which I fully agree did make them look "crappy" LOL.

In any event they were meant more to illustrate what I was thinking of to Strydur so not meant to be fancy designs just an idea for a 7" MHS hilt section with shallow 'grenade' grooves to go with the circumferential grooved styles like #2 already available.

Still not sure if thats what Strydur is thinking of here or just 7" v-grooved 'extensions' but I decided to vote for the standard ID shallow grooves even though I realize its the minority choice...but I'll be Grateful for anything new Strydur decides to offer us I'm sure.

Well what i had done was made the ribbed.vgrooved longer and added them to the style hilts so there was a bit of regular hilt section designs with the ribbed section but someone shot it down saying you could just take the sections and have a 2" or 3" section custom machined and it would get the same look.
