I want to get the following sabers added to my collection with the Emerald Saber with Sound configuration

Initiate LE V3, Dark Initiate LE V3, Dominix LE V3 and Aeon LE V3.

Yet I can't get them in that configuration. Yet all the Version 4 counter parts can. When I was browsing around in the Diamond sabers I noticed I can get the sabers I want under that configuration.
I found that a bit disconcerting.  I would like to know if it's possible to get not just the one's I'm wanting but all V3 sabers in the Emerald Saber with Sound configuration?

Sorry, but V3s are not compatible with Emerald and sound.

Because of the internal hilt dimensions US are unable to fit both the Emerald driver card and the Obsidian sound card in there with the battery pack. Because Diamond is light and sound on ONE board, they fit into the smaller hilts.

It makes me cry too, because an Emerald Liberator would be an absolute gem in my collection  Cry

I have an Emerald Initiate LE v4, with sound, and it fits just fine. Do the other sabers smaller ID? Because I thought the v3s and v4s were the same size.

Le sigh! That makes a lot of sense indeed. Actually made my brain hurt a little. I have 3 Diamond sabers currently that I love. These 4 sabers in particular I'll have to meditate on and see which way the force guides me. I sense Obsidian Premium Sound configuration is best way to go.

I had thought the same thing but apparently not. Sad Still the force will provide us with the proper guidance to find the saber that best suits us that will fulfill our needs.

Light side points please.

The Aeon and Initiate V3s are the same diameter at the opening, but both of them have a choke point further back on the hilt and that lowers the length of the widest internal space.  So the Emerald/Obsidian combo will not fit properly with a battery pack, it just can't get all the way into the hilt.

Karmack I appreciate the input. Definitely puts everything into perspective.  Add information for when I go shopping on the site for sure and for any future possible projects.

Thanks for that info Karmack. I was not aware the V3 had less space in the lower part of the hilt. Was wondering why it could do emerald, or sound, or diamond, but not emerald with sound. Good stuff.


Have a point.

Can't wait to get my prize equipped with Emerald and sound so I can personally compare it to my Diamond saber.

I have one of each. RGBA Emerald and a RGBW Diamond. Other than space in the hilt (Emerald requires 2 boards), certain features of the Diamond (stabs, spins, gestures) and memory space on the board, you can get the same mixing abilites out of both, Emerald and Diamond.

It was one of the many reasons why the Diamond board was created, LED driver and sound on one solid board versus the Emerald that has multiple boards and then the soundboard that's needed making it hard to cram into the smaller and older hilts

I only started buying from UltraSabers 3rd quarter last year, so I didn't live thru the V2 & v3 iterations of sabers. Plus, I made the mistake of buying a saber with lite sound on an emerald driver. When I purchased my first diamond saber I got hooked and decided not to back down to the emerald with sound.

And what a great choice you made going into Diamond, Chalion. I started off with a stunt saber so don’t feel bad
