    Talking Cingere by LDM

    This is my latest custom. It is a departure from my norm. It is, of course a frankensaber. It is running a Ultimate saber board and mom Corbin V2. I PC'd it and then epoxied to touch up after I scratched it some. It has a neato little mom tactile switch in one of Jon's LED holders to activate the clash and flicker. It is all powered by a 3.7V Li-ion rechargeable pack. The crystal pommel and one of the accent LEDs are amber flashers. This saber was nearly one year in conceptualization and realization, but it finally just seemed to come together.

    The Particulars:

    Corbin V2 (mom) from TCSS
    Ultimate Saber Sound
    3W Orange LED
    flashing amber 5mm LED Crystal Pommel (acrylic Crystal)
    flashing and static 5mm accent LEDs
    Custom Activation Box
    "Custom" Shroud
    MHS parts from TCSS
    mom tactile switch in LED bezel
    Kill/recharge from TCSS
    3.7V Li-ion rechargeable
    LDM Powdercoat and semi-gloss epoxy

    The Video:

    Looks a little on the evil side. I like it.

    I've said it once, I'll say it again... NICE SABER!!!

    Two questions...
    1. could you tell us a little mor about the shroud/emmitter? It looks like it was custom machined.
    2. What is "Ultimate Sound"? surely you didn't use a hasbro in that thing!!

    It looks like a saber that a Dark Jedi would have. I love it!
    Got a Question? There's a thread for that...

    SollusVir everywhere else... FXsabers, Youtube, etc...

    Great saber. I like the shroud and the switch/accent LED configuration. Great job.

    To me it looks like the grip section of a MR Mace Windu with the grips removed, am I right?

    It looks cool.

    I really dig the shroud.
    Very sweet.

    What's the difference between a 3W orange and a 3W amber?

    Hasbro Ultimate Lightsaber with the 3 sound fonts. This one is set to "ROTJ" which is descent and I have 4 of them so they need to go in something!

    Welllllll...this one simply said "Orange" in the description, but my guess is that it is simply a high BIN amber (but it looks completely orange to the eye)
