Okay so this started with an FX ESB Vader saber that I wanted to be brighter and be able to use with and without a blade whilst trooping.
While I really liked the scrolling feature I decided that sometimes for the greater good sacrifices must be made. (looking back it wasnt a sacrifice)
I decided to go with a Seoul P4 instead of a Luxeon (only because the lux was out of stock) and since Im on a pretty tight budget I kept the stock blade and diffuser.
The problem was there were some really bright white spots in the diffuser and the blade cap shone like a beacon. I decided to remove the stock diffuser and used 7.5 ft of the dollar store poly giftwrap and glued a mirrored disc to the inside of the endcap that I cut just a little small to let the light pass around into the tip.
here are some side by sides to show the difference between the two.
These two are taken with a flash
Thoughts?
