Very nice, the bronze button goes with the orange blade really well in the pics.  Point awarded.

I actually went with mid-grade because I heard that the Oranges show up better on it than the UE.

GUYS, I need your councils knowledge and advice! I'm hopefully ordering my second saber in February BUT I can't decide if I should go with PO or BR. I really like the PO but I don't really want an orange blade, just a "warmer" red. As Sithy as possible.
I know some of the forum colors are made using resistors on the LEDs, is it the same with PO? In that case, could I ask US to tweak it to as red as possible without being a regular BR?

Haha, no probs mate!
Yeah I was thinking about that, but sadly the light will be very dim. :/ I'd rather go for BR in that case. But thanks for the tip!

Hi Yiggy.  I think you will be pleased with the BR over the PO even though orange rocks.  Especially if getting sound as well.  If you want a warmer red, then a UE blade will give you a more warmer pastel effect than the neon tubing of the regular blade.  You may be able to ask US to tweak the color blend more towards the red.  Don't know off hand if red is a one color or a combo.  Either way, the red you get will be awesome and does change a bit depending upon the charge left in the batteries.  If have Li-ion and buck puck, then no problem.   Filters to alter the color shade won't work on red.  Honestly, red is my favorite less favorite color.  Am finding out that I most prefer a purple or yellow blade.  Have a joyous and safe xmas.  Fa la la la la and support your local reindeer.   Grin

Hey Dauntless! My friend has got a BR in UE and it does look warmer! Not very fond of the pastel tho. Yeah, I guess I could send US an email. But now I got to think of Emerald, that would be the total optimal way to go... More expensive, of course, but with the 10%-off deal I think it's ok.
Does anyone know if there usually are any deals in February? x)
Also, sorry for not chatting about/posting pics of orange blades... And have a nice xmas! Cheesy

I'd suggest looking into the costs of a 2Ch Emerald saber, say R+G which would give you all reds, oranges, yellows and of course green to mix to perfection.  Gives you the emerald but saves a bit vs getting a 4Ch. 

I would bet on some boxing day or new years sales coming up, but I understand that may not be timely with your finances.

I would also say that late January to mid February US MIGHT(?) hold another raffle.  So if it would be important to you to enter, and you have finances in place, you may want to wait for that instead of a % off promotion around the same time.  LOTS of guys have regretted buying during a promotion just before a raffle runs because they loose the chance to participate.  Just some food for thought there.

Here are my contributions to The Orange Outcasts:  Overlord in Fire Orange, Graflex (Emerald) in Pyrestone Orange, and Archon (Emerald) in orange produced with equal parts Red and Amber.  Unfortunately my camera does not do well at distinguishing the subtle differences between these colors.  If you look at the reflected light, you will see that the Fire Orange is more yellow than the other two.  The Pyrestone Orange (Emerald: Red 255 Green 36) is almost virtually identical to the Red/Amber Orange (Emerald: Red 255 Amber 255).  I am also surprised that the list of Emerald LED Driver Settings doesn't include any settings using the Amber LED channel.

Top to bottom:  Graflex (Pyrestone Orange), Archon (Red/Amber Orange), Overlord (Fire Orange)


Overlord (Fire Orange, in back) and Graflex (Pyrestone Orange, in front)
