    It's just a super-charged MR blade.

    It says you can't even duel with it[]

    There blades are not 10 times brighter. Boasts...

    They do make pretty even blades, but if you look close enough the do have a dim spot right in the same spot. I have heard from those that grabbed ebay sabers for cheaper and weren't impressed.

    They make good hilts though. If you have an out there design and absolutly have to have it made with cost being no object I'd go to them.

    EDIT: AH... never mind says 10 times EL... no suprise there.[] It's not a suped up MR. They use Luxeons and always have. Ithink they've just come up with a good lens and fiber combo.

    I've seen better but no one doing that as a bussiness.

    He doesn't... I've always assumed he's messed with sideglow type cable which explains the flare. I also KNOW he works with Luxeons.

    No he's doing a comparison there. He's saying he doesn't have the down falls of EL or Led strings (like an MR). He's improved on the base luxeon. Like I said though, other people have not been impressed with it.

    Oh, yes you're right...

    I misread it. My bad.
