     Before I start, I must say I had my ultrasabers, extra batteries and v2 chargers in the car while I was at work ready for some cosplay fun later.

     I am at work at the local food bank. When, OH NO THE POWER! goes out do to a wind storm. Our computery goes down and the back up cell phone dead. People are waiting in line to get holidays dinner vouchers and toy vouchers on top of food for their homes. With no light and a dead phone we would have had to close down. When I told my boss about the blades and chargers, the plan was a go. Using force speed I and another run out to the car. We hand one saber to each employee five working inside and I start charging the dead phone off one of the v2 chargers. With all the sabers on and the backup phone working we were able to start back up a few minutes later and continue working. A hour later the power comes back on and we finish out the night (with sabers still on because epic).

     If it was not for the level of Epic Ultrasabers, many (i am not aloud to say how many by law) people would not have holiday dinners and toys under the tree. So thank you very much for saving the holidays from all of us. Without you, those saber and charger we would not have been able to continue until the power came back on. I wish I was aloud to take pictures to show you( by picture book, because those stories are always written that way) but I was not aloud. So thank you again because we can not say it enuff. I just wanted Everyone to know how Ultrasabers saved Christmas.

     May the Force be With You Always

Hey there, Rekam. That’s a great story and kudos to you for what you’re doing.z I’m glad that you were able to use your lightsabers to light up the mood, pun intended. I see you bring your sabers with you. That’s pretty rad there. Keep up the good work there!  Do you take light or dark side points?

Great story. I know just how handy those Ultrasabers are in a power outage. I’ve used mine once and they really lit up the room!

Great story. I know just how handy those Ultrasabers are in a power outage. I’ve used mine once and they really lit up the room!


I'm visually impaired with Retinitis Pigmentosa, and I was in Long Beach, CA at the veterans Blind Rehabilitation Clinic going through training and one night (last October), the power went out and no one had lights.


We're blind, but c'mon. The nursing staff had no lights and there were only a few plugs available to use on the emergency circuit, so they were used to charge up peoples phones.


My Dark Prophecy and Dark Sentinel LE v4 (red and arctic blue, resp.) rose to the challenge and provided light for those needing it until the morning.


The power ended up being out for about a week, and it was roughing it. Yup, people may have been skeptical about my little "toys", but my Utrasabers came through in a big way and they directly helped out our veterans (who were older, the oldest being 98) and the staff
really dug them and thought about making a purchase for themselves.


I even had my Rogue One moment where the second night of the blackout, I helped a fellow vet get to his dorm room in the dark hallway, and I had my miniflashlight and my Dark Prophecy and a nurse was walking by a ways down the hall, and she saw me and called my name and I fired up my DP and the red blade cut through the darkness, and she laughingly yelled "OPEN FIRE!!!". I walked towards her spinning my saber.


She laughed, I laughed, we all laughed and it was a nice moment of levity. The power went out on a Wednesday at 8:30 pm, and was finally restored Monday at 5:30 pm.


Everything went back to normal and Ultrasabers and my Dark Prophecy were essential in me having fun during my training and helping my fellow vets in this crisis.

That is just an awesome story and I thought the first one that Rekam told us was grand, which it is by the way.  Really cool, Darth Davester and great use of your sabers.  Also, kudos to you for escorting veterans to their dorms, you already have my respect my fellow brother in arms, you just have more of it!!!!

I like that you bring your sabers with you as well, a Force user will always need their weapon besides them no matter what and yours were ready reliably when you needed them most.  That's really cool that you got people interested in owning their own lightsabers as well, you get extra points for that my friend.  Wink

I like your Rogue One scene, lol.  Did you have to Force choke a few Rebels (assuming they were since they ordered the open fire on a Sith)?  How about Force hole until you get close to strike them down with your saber?  If only that was recorded on video for you to show people!!! But hey, both you and that nurse have awesome memories of it

Yeah, my R1 scene was cool. No force holding or choking, though since I just love the staff there, lol.


One of the best things about the BRC is I had two WWII vets assigned to my table the whole time I was there. One was 92, the other 98! Those guys were my homies! Awesome people all around.


I do have to give much love to the staff at the BRC for taking good care of us, especially during the outage. Everyone really pulled together and did what must be done. We are soldiers.


And points back and Semper Fi!
