Title: Archon V2.1 With Activation box! In Arctic blue and Silver AV
Post by: Sky Dragon c5 on May 28, 2013, 12:00:18 AM
Here it is. My Archon V2.1 with.....Activation Box!
In Arctic Blue with Silver AV.

I asked Deep and had it added on, its the same Silver Box off of the Malice, drilled and fitted to the Archon.
Note that it had to be over the existing switch hole.

I had it with a Silver AV to match and I have on hand both a Classic and Regular Pommels.
I also have a Blue MLS and Green MLS to swap out depending on the sound font.

Question is, am I the first to add a box to a saber that isn't the Malice or Graflex?

Not truly.
Other than the one custom Archon from when Ultra Sabers that was made when the Archon V2 came out, which was a one of a kind.
Video here:

That one inspired me to do this.

But it is the First AV switch activation box that I know of on a Archon V2.1

Also will this start a trend?

I actually like this position better as it gives you more room to grip at bottom of the saber, than the Initial Ultra Custom Design.

Note: You can order this with a Activation Box without sound! You just need to pay for the Box ($20 in Req) and the AV switch($25 in Req if ordered with no sound).
Mine does have sound.

I will also make a list of sabers that have room for the Activation Box, then we can make a list of sabers that can have the option added after confirming it with Deep.
To confirm if you can add it to a saber other than the Archon e-mail [email protected].

How awesome is this!?! Great creativity. Love the Archon, hopefully my next ultrasaber. Well done, looks so good.

What a beautiful piece of work!!! Great thinking Sky and super great work from Ultrasabers.  The Archon is certainly the saber that should rule them all.

Well wishes awarded since Sky doesn't like points.

Thanks BlueSpike. I thought you would like this, especially since it is my first Blue Saber (Other than my RGB).

I still will get a Guardian in GB and Graflex CE in AB, but this was at the top of my list being so versatile with MLS units.

I like Arctic Blue to emulate the original Ultra Made, but personally I love this more.

Illuminated AV, Better Grip, and I personally don't like blade shimmer.

Nice work. Love it. So you can get this saber regularly with a box now? That's cool.

I think it was a custom request, but it would certainly be cool as a standard option. I would have got the same setup as above!

Looks great Sky Dragon c5!

I especially liked how you used a 26650 cell.  I've been thinking how nice it would be if I could use 18650s since they are up to 3400 mAH now, but 26650 is even better (I have a few Enerpower 26650s that would be great for this).  My understanding is that the 2 14500s in a US saber are in series, which would mean twice the voltage of a single 26650.  I was wondering if you could describe what changes you made 'on the inside' in order to make it work with a single 26650?

Yes Sky, this will start a trend, though I wish I could have started it... Oh well we both had the idea but yours got back first. Mine will be back in early June so I guess I'll go spoil my surprise in my "Rebirth" thread... Still cool we were on the same wavelength! Can't wait for my Dark Arbiter to return with the BLACK MALICE BOX!!!!! MWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
