You're right, yellow is one of those great mysteries no one seems to get just right. Plus yellow seems to be a very personal thing for most people, I find.
True. Ironically, my "yellow" is ... Yellow. Yellow 101. Though I also like Light Amber (102) and Lee Yellow 765 and Oklahoma Yellow 767. My daughter is hooked on pink (Follies Pink 328) and I'm currently looking for a good filter for a very pale purple and Cyan or SRD. But that's for the future. I have my Emerald saber set for a really awesome light blue and my Consular is filtered to SY. I am in happy land! :-)

Yeah, it's one of the strongest out of the stock US ones ... that, the yellow and SRD disc are the best. Purple, pink, a really solid green, red, and blue are in need of some help. That's what I'm hoping to see come from the ordered filters.

i use the lee filters also with my dark intiate v4 TRI CREE AS. I get much better brightness with them over the US discs. Iv sat down for hours cutting out and playing with all the shades. Iv gotten pretty much every color possi le to look reallly good except red. to get a true red you lose too much brightness. but for a way cheaper way to change colors of your saber the TRI CREE AS with filters is the way to go!

I just got my swatch book today, and started cutting out colours and trying to keep them organized ... interesting about the red, _Sith. I haven't gotten to those yet will be interesting to see the results for myself.
Will be taking some time to go through the book and hoping to post some new pics sometime in the next few days.

Awesome! It's fun finding all the cool combinations of colors. The reds are nice just not as bright in my opinion. I organzided all mine in tiny little baggies with the color names written on them. (Guardian Blue, fire orange, etc.)

Ready to roll ... just like you did, _Sith and also taken straight outta Dauntless Seven's playbook I went and got something to keep the filters organized. A $3 photo album that'll hold up to 100 colours (photo's ). I've settled on 42 colours and may get into more detailed shades of blues etc. down the road but right now this is more than enough to mix/match and play with.

I'm going to be showing only one shade of a colour at a time as by photo it's near impossible to tell apart one red from another side x side and so on. Some colours are duds, for the most part I'm impressed and these have met my expectations for quality colour filtration and brightness. So starting off this time around ... Scarlet #024 x 1(filter) (has a pink hue to it) Dark Green #124 x 1 or 2. Solid. Bright Pink #128 x 1 or 2. So good! Rust #777 x 1 Shanklin Frost #717 x 2 (icy blue) Dark Lavender #180 x 1 Lime Green #088 x 1 or 2 Also amazing! Yes, the Lime Green and Bright Pink are the most evenly lit I've seen in these colours and indistinguishable from a dedicated LED IMO. #leeforthewin. More to follow

After seeing all these posts I am really tempted to go this route. This will allow me to change colors if I see fit, or if I get bored with a color. My only thing is you loose the ability for flash on clash. I am thinking I may buy one saber with FoC and then any sabers I buy/build after that use this method.

As a suggestion you could get a silver main colour with FOC, then filter it to different main colours. Of course this would mess a little with your FOC though.

That is an option. Most likely I will just get my next one with a standard color and FoC. See if I even like FoC. Then do my next couple this way for a more custom color effect and changabity. I already got the saber bug and only just got my first stunt saber haha. I already have 5 more saber planned on my list.
