Situational adaptiveness. Single hand uses less energy, but when you need to deliver the power, you switch to 2 hands. Study the duel on Cloud City. Vader starts of toying with Luke, using only one hand.
I remember that! I think I'm gonna back and re-watch the OT to see some of that stuff. |

Now this kind of box I could get behind.  And I don't need to get close to defeat you. I've never been a fan of the large activation boxes except for my EH and this saber, whatever it is, it looks great. |

This is just a Shock LE with a custom activation box and a std Raven pommel. |

Sure about that?    If the box lined up with the switch, it would be in the upper 3rd of the body. As the Obi-Luke goes, the box is in the lower-center to bottom 3rd of the hilt. Now this kind of box I could get behind. All of the models, and replicas of the Luke, and Obi-Wan sabers I have held over the years the box was about half way up the hilt, not counting the emitter, or neck. My hand always seems to gravitate to the upper section where the grooves, or grenade grip is, but if I go for a two handed approach the box gets in the way. And I don't need to get close to defeat you.
That is what you think. I have learned how to blend into a space and not be noticed. You will not see, or hear me until it is too late. |

Gotta say it again -
More love for DIY
1) Pricing on parts.
Example a cart with 1x buckpuck, 2x batteries, an illuminated AV switch, LED Module (basic, not TRI, no FOC), the battery/speaker holder w/speaker, and an Obsidian v4 sound card comes out to $227.
A Dark Apprentice v4 w/buckpuck (batteries only), illuminated AV switch, and Obsidian v4 soundboard comes out to $235.
That’s only $10 difference and includes a hilt, all wired up and ready to go. And it doesn’t include any discounts.
I would just like to see the pricing on parts be a little more reasonable where doing it yourself can actually save someone some money.
2) That being said –
I’d love to see DIY kits. Board, Buckpuck, Batteries all wired up and using JST connectors or some other quick connect for EZ install and modular use (can be easily removed and installed into any hilt). All served up in a nice neat easy to install and remove little chassis.
Maybe even a complete 4 piece kit, with switch and LED. Choose your switch, LED color and holder type.
Even better, these kits offered for Obsidian v3, v4, AND DIAMOND.
I know all of this can be done DIY, but let’s make it easy. Wink
3) if number 2 could be a reality, offer empty hilts with the switch installed with the wires and connector so that if we had a kit mentioned in (2), we can unbox, plug it together, and get at it.
4) MORE PARTS - More MHS bodies, pommels, and emitters!
5) Include parts/electronics in sales.

Oh like ummm ... wait I see nobody else giving away a free saber at that price, maybe a t-shirt and a blade plug for that price but not a stunt saber. Then again there are the other guys' raffles... oh wait I don't see any...  |
