I built this one for my daughter to use with her Jedi Padawan outfit when she dresses up with me for the charity events we do with the local 501st and Rebel Legions.
Actually, I really just put it together, Airsoftmode, or Saberforge actually made the hilt and I did the brass sleeve and assembly. So, here's how it turned out:
I'm not wild about the switch, as it looks out of place on this one....it is one that I modified over at FX-Sabers.com to install a mini-tactile momentary into the original click on/off switch. It works, and I haven't had the board lock up too much on me, but it just doesn't look good. I have a new bezel nut ordered, we'll see what it looks like with one of those on it instead of the plastic one. I might try to modify one of my metal push buttons in a similar fashion and use one of those instead.
Power is supplied from two Li-ion Trustfire batteries from the store here at TCSS, as well as the battery holder, and recharge port. Sound and light are provided by an Ultrasound 2.0, and the led is, I believe, a Seoul P4 white. I added a filter to the lens to get the color she desired:
The blade is one of my Dual-Core Diffusion types, and is 36" in length.
