I'm thnking of enter the Raffle again with Archkon V3.1 in Guardian blue
My Archon V3.1 entry from the first raffle came in today, it's pretty awesome. I do wish you could get it in a MG blade because the added weight of the HG blade makes the saber much harder for me to spin and I wish I had thought to ask them to cut the blade down a couple extra inches. Nonetheless, I am very pleased with the saber, the Tri-Green makes up for the light only have the thin area to get through in the thin neck so the blade is still really bright. They seem to be using new AV switches too, the one on my new Archon is slightly different from the AV switches on my other sabers. |

Sure thing   The biggest difference to me is that the actual button doesn't have the point/dot in the middle and it's much more reflective. You can see part of the camera reflected in the actual button on the second pic.  |

Thanks for that, it seems as though my Sentinel came with a newer AV switch, then. I quite like it. |

I ordered a black AV switch on the Proph. I wonder if they're different. |

Ooh, this might be a good time to make a purchase. Just wondering what the odds of winning are in this raffle. Can someone tell us how many orders were placed in the last raffle? Thanks!!!

Only Ultrasabers knows for sure. We can offer a good, educated guess for how many orders they had, in total, during that time frame, but can't tell how many orders qualified as entries. |

Yeah, that's what I figured. I would be handy to know this information. I don't see any limits on entries so, while 95 prizes sounds great, if US gets 2000 orders the odds of winning go down vs say 200 orders where you have essentially a 50/50 chance of winning. For myself at least I would like to know my odds before I jump on an order just to make the raffle deadline. |

Of course, not all of the ones in between might have qualified for the raffle, but it highlight's that a lot of people must have entered.. |

Cool, thanks. So using that data we have about a 1 in 35 odds of winning a saber or about 2.7%. Not sure if that's enough to move me to make a early order, but who knows the temptation may take over, lol. |

Don't concern your time with odds, we'll never know enough for guessing. Enter to have some fun and take a chance, that's what it's about Remember, either way you'd be getting a nice lightsaber that you paid for and the bonus is that you could win something. |
