Hey all. This is a saber I built for my gf for Christmas. Named the "Viridian Virtue". A few months ago she she was playing with the MHS Builder one day, and I memorized the hilt she built.
Here's the Rundown:
MHS Body #4
Blade holder #9
Pommel #8
Gender Changer
2 inch Extension
Psycho Lime PC by TCSS
Wet Black PC by TCSS
FX Jedi board out of MR Obi ROTS
Seoul P4 Green led
5 degree lens
Premium Speaker from TCSS
4aa 6volt battery setup
5mm accent led
Short piece of 3/4" Blade material
3/4" Blade tip with reflective disk removed
32" TCSS Style Thin Wall Poly C blade
Had some issues with the sound setup. It's all in this thread.

The switch was supposed to be silver, but I had to switch it out with a red latching since it was all I had on hand. She decided she likes the red better, so it is a permanent change now. I put a piece of sanded 3/4" Blade material in the pommel to diffuse the light from the accent led. I'm not too happy with how bright it is, so I'm going to be switching it out for a brighter one in the future.
Here's the pics:
I installed a new accent led in the pommel. The left pic is the old one. It has a 5mm 15 degree viewing angle led. 565nm wavelenth(kinda yellow-green) 630mcd output. The right pic is the new one for comparison. It has a 5mm led with a 30 degree viewing angel. 525nm wavelength(darker green, closer to the blade led) 5000mcd output. Wow what a difference!
And here's one of her when she first opens it up.
And here's a video:
