Title: Stealth Dark Menace . . .
Post by: JediXIX on September 30, 2015, 02:54:03 PM

Firstly, credit where credit's due . . . Darth Logos came up with this idea and name not long after the release of the Dark Menace . . . optioned with black windowed emitter and all black knurled screws . . . 8)

A few others have now spec'd a Stealth Dark Menace with different blade colours, so take plenty of pics and post them here :)

I'll start off . . . When I first got mine back in April, US didn't offer the black av switches, so I optioned a yellow illuminated av with my SY blade . . .

(http://i1378.photobucket.com/albums/ah119/JediXIX/4944E6D4-841F-4FED-8E65-5DEDB7C43759_zpsug0hqhnc.jpg) (http://s1378.photobucket.com/user/JediXIX/media/4944E6D4-841F-4FED-8E65-5DEDB7C43759_zpsug0hqhnc.jpg.html)

Since then, US now offer black av switches, so I ordered one and have finally installed it . . . here are a few more pics with a black / yellow illuminated av (I've also installed an RGBA "gold" LED and amber pommel accent LED for fun) . . . cheers :)

:o Jeez that is OMG shmexy beautiful ! 8) That gold blade is fantastic and the black av switch... what a difference. Do you need to have a 4 channel to get this color ? I would like to see a more interesting pommel on this. How do you get that LED in the pommel end as there already is limited room for all the other wiring and hardware ? You are da man. ;D

+1 for you for sure and thanks for sharing. :P

Its the RGBA gold colour that Lord C posted here http://www.saberforum.com/index.php?topic=24513.msg367833#msg367833 with R:255 G:255 B:0 A:255, but, I colour matched it with an RGBA module (special order from US) wired to R, G, and A with resistors to R & A..... I wired in the resistors myself because the Emerald driver works some fancy magic and the colour with straight wiring is very different, so to answer your question, yes, you'd need the 4 channel Emerald RGBA :)

The accent is a small 3mm amber LED like this ;

All I do is splice some wires into the switch LED +/- and run them down past the battery pack using 28AWG thin wires, and add a resistor also.... I really like the effect and have done quite a few now :)

Thanks Lord C :) . . . Yep these black switches sold by US are pretty much a perfect match . . . when the anodising on the hilt is "black" that is ;)

My prize from the last raffle is a Dark Initiate v4 with a black switch and the anodising on the hilt is a purple-ish black so the switch stands out as being a different black (bottom pic) . . . My Dark Menace is very black (top pic) . . . :)

Interesting. Glad to hear that! I'll have to keep that in mind, though I would go non-illuminated for the Ultimate in Stealthness on a Dark Menace.

I asked because I noticed the "Black" switch box on the Chosen One didn't seem to match the "Black" switch which was a bummer for me - I loved the idea of it pretty much being "invisible" on there. That was actually the #1 reason I was psyched for black switches. Same thing as the Dark Initiate there - a purpley black versus the true black.

My purchases are going to have to be much fewer & far between now, so a Chosen One is far, far away for me still, based on my Wishlist - but I'm back to thinking standard silver av switch. I'd rather have the pure contrast then not have them match-up.

Title: Re: Stealth Dark Menace . . .
Post by: hazard502 on October 01, 2015, 04:02:10 AM

The black switch on my Consular is a perfect match to it's anodizing. I'd say risk it on your desired build:P ;D

They should so make this a new forum color. Makes me wonder what you get adding Amber to Blue or Green. :o

Yes, but on a saber with just sound the illuminated AV is kinda gonna take a back seat the 36" LIGHT BLADE, as far as negating stealth. :P

As for the variation in black anodize, I think it might just be a hiccup in the process, but it still falls within spec. The pommel neck on my Scorp was a true black while the shroud and end cap had the purplish hue. But unless it's 6" from your face, who can really tell the diff?

Title: Re: Stealth Dark Menace . . .
Post by: Kouri on October 01, 2015, 02:53:17 PM

The dye in black anodizing tends to take on a purplish hue when exposed to heat. I noticed my Dark Standard Issue pommel was a different color after drilling out a sound vent - and again on the hilt threads after it was painted and baked. My guess is LE hilts warm up a bit when the silver grooves are machined into them.

Alternatively, it also means one could heat up a black anodized switch to color-shift it closer to a purple-black hilt.

Edit: As for other Amber combos, my guess is A+B = White, A+G = Lime Green. Hopefully someone with an RGBA Emerald could pop in and verify~

Thanks to you Lord C (electrical tape, press fit), and my connector setup for swapping things around, I can easily swap my switches from hilt to hilt, and I have an US black non-illuminated av, so why not ;D

Then I couldn't help myself, and swapped around a couple of Quick Disconnect MHS units for some more pics . . .

First, PO for Logos . . .

Well, now I know almost exactly what my Dark Menace will look like when it arrives, and in some of my favorite colors.

Mine's not quite as "stealthy", with silver underlay and switch, and changing colors will be a tad easier since mine has (or will have, when they put it together) the Emerald driver, but other than those minor points, the DVA pic is just what I should see when I pull it out of the box. And I'm expecting it'll spend most of its time being either DVA, or EG.

Title: Re: Stealth Dark Menace . . .
Post by: Lord Canterbury on October 03, 2015, 05:13:55 PM

Awesome!

Actually - Logos, in all honesty - I've just come to greatly prefer the overall look of N-I AV Switches to Illuminated ones. With the exception being the V Series. Then I prefer the Illuminated switch in any V3 or V4 variant.

Don't ask why - I don't know! ::)

But Menace, Graflex, Guardian etc. - 99% sure those will all get N-I switches. (Leaving the 1% - just in case.)

Blue...ahhhhh no no no...GREEN yeah baby! I'll concede that blue is good for FoC which is what I just set my Consular flash to ;D 8) Actually a mixture of B+R+A for a cool blue, a few shades darker than AB. The Amber does a nice job of color tuning.

But really nice pics JediXIX and nice array of blade colors, this is making me want another all black hilt. ::) A Dark Menace is just so nice. I think is this Stealth instance I prefer the illuminated switch as I feel like it helps pull the look together over all.

The Flamberge is starting to chip away at my wall and making an effort at the 'ol wish list. Perhaps a Stealth Flamberge with N I black AV? The name doesn't sound as smooth as the Stealth Menace but it could be a new "forum" only category of lightsaber :P

The more I look at the pictures, the more certain I am that I will end up buying all black windowed emitters for my double Menace, for those times when I want a bit extra "stealthiness". But the silver NI AV switch stays.

Post by: darth tratus on October 04, 2015, 02:59:22 PM

DVA is my favorite saber color, but for some reason on that hilt i still think the yellow looks best. It just appeals to a stealthy kind of undercover jedi in the sentinel class. The PO is great too! Point for the cool colors!

It's a duel credit thing. I had the initial idea, and XIX had the disposable income. As for the color, PO is a combo of FO & BR.

They don't call them Quick Disconnects for nothing. Depending on the hilt, MLS units can be switched out in under 20sec.

I know. The cost effectiveness of disconnects taps out after 3 MLS. So unless, like me, you are planning on collecting sabers, Emerald is a better way to go for color change.

I have only a small number of planned sabers for Emerald, probably just the two Dark Menaces and a Flamberge. QDs for the rest on my list that have that as an option.

D7, I will put the Blood Orange in the Stealth Dark Menace, but it'll be in a couple weeks (very busy for the next few days, then we going on a family holiday to Thailand, and I'll be sitting on a beach or by the pool sipping a Long Island Iced Tea :P) . . . for now, here's some pics of Blood Orange compared to PO, it is visibly brighter and a much darker orange than PO ;

Very nice orange colors and thanks. That holiday sounds well deserved and beautifully relaxing. Have a safe and joyful experience.

A few others have now spec'd a Stealth Dark Menace with different blade colours, so take plenty of pics and post them here :)

I'll start off . . . When I first got mine back in April, US didn't offer the black av switches, so I optioned a yellow illuminated av with my SY blade . . .

Since then, US now offer black av switches, so I ordered one and have finally installed it . . . here are a few more pics with a black / yellow illuminated av (I've also installed an RGBA "gold" LED and amber pommel accent LED for fun) . . . cheers :)

Thanks to you Lord C (electrical tape, press fit), and my connector setup for swapping things around, I can easily swap my switches from hilt to hilt, and I have an US black non-illuminated av, so why not ;D

Then I couldn't help myself, and swapped around a couple of Quick Disconnect MHS units for some more pics . . .

First, PO for Logos . . .

And I wasn't going to, but the Dark Side made me do it . . . BR 8)

Actually, as I've got all the blade colours with Quick Disconnects (and a couple of customs, like Blood Orange), if any one has a blade colour they'd like to see, post a request here and I'll take a pic and post it..... Cheers :)

who ever idea was for the stealth Dark Menace saber. I give you two thumbs up ;D ;D

I wonder on the Stealth dark Menace if a Plain AV switch looks better or a Illumated AV switch

It probably depends on how "stealth" you're going for.
