I got my saber about 1 month ago(from Goodman, who built it for me), I went ahead being a little curious cat and unthreaded some parts(blade holder and the piece directly below it). and boom, one of the really thin wires snapped, so my saber was without-main-LED for quite awhile.
Few days ago i finally got around to getting it fixed, and I did. sadly all i could do was add some other wires,coil them together and electrical tape it.
(i know you guys are wondering about warranty right now, but its simply not worth $60 to fix it for "free", and since i unthreaded the top part, the warranty was probably voided)
Truth to be told I'm not that pleased with his work(which is why i'm posting it here where he won't see, shh). the wires that broke are of really low quality, and 2 weeks ago i realized he charged me twice for the blade and battery charger.
Its a TCSS-based saber, just some extra holes.
Specs(what i know of it anyways):
Seoul P4 blue main LED
Ultrasound 2.5
unknown number of probably NiMH batteries(since the charger was NiMH)
Some green accent LED for crystal
Here are the pics(just quick ones with handphone camera, if you guys would like to see specific parts of the hilt, just let me know and I'll take some)
Lights on:
Lights off:
just for comparisons sake, this is how the saber was intended to be. I know the parts are shorter than MHS, be he said he had the full workshop, with all the tools to do anything related to saber building yadayadayada
Its a pretty good saber, especially for a first. but i still kinda feel ripped off.
(it was about 500 USD)
