Hey Makoto, nice to meet you. I've seen your work on the net.

I'm from Taiwan originally also, nice to meet a countryman.

How sturdy are those LED blades? Can it be dueled with? I was thinking if you put LEDs in a inner tube of smaller diameter polycarbonate that it could probably withstand dueling without breaking the LED string. Would make it slightly less bright, but would go a long way to make the blade last longer.

hi~
The secret is the HB LED for specially make from Taiwan and keeping the passion and curious of lightsaber all the time.

I start to build the lightsaber by myself since I like it.
At first, I just usual lightsaber that no soundcard and light-up effect.
Just like that:

I start to use soundcard and light-up effect when I get my first MR saber that is break. I total understand the design of soundcard and light-up effect after I repair it.
Because I feel the MR saber is not brighter than my usual lightsaber, that is why I would like to upgrade MR. XD~~

Hi~~
Nice to meet you in here too~~
I live Taipei now.

The LED strip is sturdy enough for dueled, because the structure is simple, more simple~ more strong.
Dueled?! sure~~
