Good ideas. Mine was something along the lines of it having one of those spring-loaded buttons on either side  that you have to push to connect or disconnect them, and it fits into a channel that is shaped like a Z with 90-degree angles. That way you have to push the buttons in and twist to get it to come apart.
Those buttons are on things like exercise equipment to adjust metal crutches to adjust them, when it lines up with the hole the button pops out to lock it in place.
That idea sounds very effective, I don't see any flaws in it, and I have seen gym equipment with that lock system.

How about a new blade type? Where the tip is universal, rounded and pointed, then a deeper blade tip socket, I say 3 more inches deeper. Then we wouldn't have to worry about tip lose at all. Maybe a sanded option too for clear blades, like lightly sanded with 500 grit sand paper. For the tips, they would be pointed but not all the way, they would still have a rounded tip. Just an idea really.

Huh... This would be cool. Might be kinda fiddly though.

I think it would be cool to be able to change the AV switch color independently from the blade with an emerald driver.

I would even go further and vote for blades that are made in one piece, without an extra blade tip glued in. The blade film would have to be the same shape of the blade, though. That's probably the most difficult part.

Not an easy one, would require a special order switch. I've only seen them with a single colour LED. The light is part of the switch not the 'saber. Smiley

I actually agree with Nova. That would be nice to have just a one piece of blade so you wouldn't have to worry about the tips flying off while dueling hardcore.

A thank you optic kitties, however I think that doing it this way would drive the price up for each blade because they would have to do a process of molding an point on each end with a mirror preset in the mold. Whereas I believe the other way, they just make a long tube of thin or thick polycarbonate and reflective film, and then they can cut that down and put tips on it at 16", 24", 32", 36", and 40" blades.
I still think it would be awesome!!! Grin
