Still liking the AS with filters? I’m getting ready to order two sabers and debating on FO and PO LEDs or going AS with filters.

I do!  For orange/yellow colors I prefer tri-cree AS with filters, the colors tend to be brighter IMO.

I agree, based on an emerald driver vs filters, I prefer tri silver with filters for yellow/orange tones. I don't own any dedicated orange led sabers

What Karmack said. Any light going through any sort of filter will dim slightly so you'll want the brightest setup that you can get

Well I have to wait a few months but I am officially a owner of a AS saber.  I didn’t get the color discs because I want to buy the sample book. Anyone have a link for that? Also did I read that someone uses a 1” hole punch to cut out the discs?

Here is the link to order the swatch book.  Plaintext for the link... https://shop.leefiltersusa.com/LEE-Swatch-Books_c4.htm

I know I said I would use a 1” circular punch to do that, but I haven’t made it to a craft store yet to buy one, nor have I pawed through my wife’s scrapbooking supplies to see if we already own one.

One thing I've noticed on my Fallen...   It is the first saber I've owned that really had a removable emitter and true MLS module for the LED.  On my other AS sabers (Catalyst, Aeon V4) I've always had to slide the filter into the blade pocket and carefully tamp it down with the blade to seat it against the LED.

But with the Fallen, I can remove the emitter and lay it right there on the LED, then secure it with the emitter.  It also allows me to cut the filter larger (and less regular, LOL) though the 1" circles still work.

Just an observation.   :-)

Oh, good point!  It’s the only one I have with a removable emitter, too, but it’s also the one with the Diamond controller, so... I’ll need to remember this for later purchases.
