An image of an Archon v3.1 in CG lighting up a corner full of reflective things.





That is so cool. Point!

Question, what would the effect of drilling a second set screw into the emitter (at 90 degrees from the one present) do to the blade and other factors?

I am considering it to not only get rid of the slight wobble but also to reduce the stress of the one screw holding the blade in.

(On request at a convention I presently have the blade in Blazing Red pulsing to a Teal every six seconds (also holding for six seconds each) and a Sentinel Yellow held for six seconds on FoC.)

Hello all, this may be old information, if so I am sorry.
I went the way Rogu3 was thinking. I called US and was told the V3.1 emitter
was not available seperately so I ordered a V3.1 saber with an extra V2.1 emitter and a black
vented coupler as I have seen this used as a semi crystal chamber.
It was ordered on Jan 15th and is being delivered tomorrow, one month exactly.
Not to bad for them being so busy. The weight for saber and blade delivered is about 3 lbs
For the person in Germany asking. Will post pics when it arrives.

Tell me how it works out and be sure to post photos. My saber should get here on Thursday, it's been sitting in a Fedex warehouse in Melbourne for two days.

You need to turn it counter clockwise.

Can a Heavy UltraEdge Blade be fitted to the Archon v3?

If the blade purchased with an order, how would one specify that so one can swap out the heavy grade blade for an UltraEdge in the already owned Archon v3's emitter?

I am thinking of purchasing a couple of new heavy blades in 32" and 36" along with a coupler and an Archon v2 emitter, but I'd like the new blades to be able to fit the Archon v3's emitter I already own.

The only difference in a V3.1 HG blade is that the inner film is cut back to make room for the core of the emitter.  You could do this yourself when you get new HG blades.  Or you could email US and get pre-authorization for them to do it for you in your next order.

Just got mine on Wednesday. Pretty sweet saber, but the blade is wobbly. The neck is pretty resilient but the blade seems to not seat right and has some bob to it

The thick blade and the fact it sits only an inch or two into the emitter (making the blade stick out much more than the V2.1)  causes me some problems when swinging it around, more so to my wrists than my arms.  Of course I am a smaller fellow so that certainly has a lot to do with it.  The saber does make a clanking sound when I practice with it around the emitter area. Over all i do love it though, I'm glad I bought it.
