    Well ya have to remember when it comes to 3W leds forget lumens and get the color you like.

    that being said the blue is a very nice color and is very bright.

    I thik my corbin film is messed up some how.

    The Hyperblades are alot brighter than the Lux's. The thing to keep in mind, is that the Hyperblades have 9 levels of brightness, and that Hyperblade in the pic might be at a lower level.

    But whats the point of having the brightest saber for 18min or less?

    Its compleatly pointless, mindbogaling stupid.

    Why do people lie or gloat about having something better when they know they can easily be beat by something else? It's all about being better than someone/something just for that one split second.

    Of course, I'm not implying at all that anyone here has an ego complex or lies/gloats. *l* It's just an example.

    I heard that Hypers actually have pretty good duelability because of the flexible tube material and shock absorption properties of the stuff around the LEDs. And it may just be part of the Hyperdyne hype, but I also heard rumors of it being able to completely demolish MRs in just a few hits...

    No clue if any of what I mentioned above was true, but I did see a blue Hyper at C4. It completely outshone my 3-watt lux, which was driven off a buckpuck at the time and using a corbin double-wrap blade. It was a bit brighter than the brightest point on my blade. So yeah, the brightness on those things is just amazing. But I do have to say that I could see the dark spots on the blade that come from stuffing multiple pinpoints of bright light into a tube, so his blade isn't the most evenly diffused thing either.

    In the video of the mr blade braking . the blade broke not even at a strike.

    the person with the HD saber went to go on the strike then the mr blade fell off. I think that video was a fake just to say hay this is stronger.

    Theres leds in the blade so no matter what an led will pop.

    The smaller dark spots that occure from having the saber on too long and an led getting hotter than one or the other and slightly melting the foam there warapted in. you know when its a dark spot cause its darker than the other dark spots.

    The dark spots in the blade are caused by the space in between the leds and the printed circuit board that the leds are mounted on, not from the foam diffuser melting. The spacing and circuit board create visible spaces that are not lit so they appear as as dark spots. The only way to over come this is to remove the printed circuit board from the blade and increase the number of leds to remove any space between them.

    or better yet, do a lux conversion and be done with bladed leds completely!

    Well, for a display blade, I do have to say they look excellent. But still...flashlight sabers offer the best all-around performance for sure.
