Title: Emerald Green Overlord Post by: Vex on October 01, 2013, 09:20:37 PM I took the Obsidian out of this saber for my custom Dark Obi_Wan. I decided to make this saber a stunt. This led has a min fwd voltage of 5.45 so a 4 AAA pack is too close at 6 volts. I went with Li-Ion. The list of electronics I used.
- Lux V Cyan Bin 3 led - black anodized green illuminated AV latching switch - 700ma Buck Puck (optimum for this led) - 220 ohm 1/4 watt resistor for the AV Switch - 2ea. 14500 Trust Fire LI-ION cells - 2 AA batt pack This saber is Very bright!

Great color :D
Title: Re: Emerald Green Overlord Post by: Lord Krankenhaus on October 01, 2013, 11:29:44 PM I'll be perfectly honest and say that while I'm not a fan of Emerald Green in general, it really "POP"'s on this hilt. Very nice! ;D

Title: Re: Emerald Green Overlord Post by: Sky Dragon c5 on October 02, 2013, 02:41:25 AM Looks great. I love the overlord, looks great in everything.
Title: Re: Emerald Green Overlord Post by: Master Nero Attoru on October 03, 2013, 02:13:03 AM This looks fantastic Vex, one of my new favorite hilts with my all time favorite color - and you're one of the lucky folks to get the actual Lux V version of Emerald Green like my Dark Prophecy has! I'm seriously jealous of you with this one, good stuff.
Hey, maybe I should order an Emerald Green MLS unit for my Overlord... Title: Re: Emerald Green Overlord Post by: Zren Tobas on October 03, 2013, 02:38:19 AM Nice saber dude. I like the color on it. =]
Title: Re: Emerald Green Overlord Post by: Vex on October 04, 2013, 05:46:00 PM Thanks all. This hilt has its permanent MLS and Buck Puck in it. I will be adding sound later. It looks great and as with all Overlords, it handles well!
Title: Re: Emerald Green Overlord Post by: Prowl 1701 on October 05, 2013, 05:35:20 AM Is that a catalyst pommel? It's looks great on the overlord, really adds to the design in my eyes! Like that EG on it too.
Edit* Dark point for making me like the Overlord! Title: Re: Emerald Green Overlord Post by: Vex on October 05, 2013, 01:20:18 PM Yes it is. I like the way the Catalyst pommel looks on it. And the Overlord is a great hilt!
Title: Re: Emerald Green Overlord Post by: chicago.jedi on October 05, 2013, 04:00:57 PM Nice saber, Vex.
And thanks for the detailed parts list. This sort of information really helps people like myself who are still learning about electronics. Point of a great build and great information. Title: Re: Emerald Green Overlord Post by: Master Nero Attoru on October 06, 2013, 03:59:04 PM Yes it is. I like the way the Catalyst pommel looks on it. And the Overlord is a great hilt! Overlord FTW. It's my favorite of what I'd call the "deluxe" line of hilts, the more detailed non-V3 models. VERY nice to handle, not too chubby or covered with greeblies to get in the way. Excellent balance of beauty and functionality. Title: Re: Emerald Green Overlord Post by: Vex on October 11, 2013, 01:10:38 AM It is an excellent hilt. Single handed, double handed, spinning... It can do it all well!
Title: Re: Emerald Green Overlord Post by: eerockk on October 11, 2013, 01:17:55 AM My Overlord is in EG right now because of this thread. That saber looks great in any color I've put in it yet. EG is definitely no exception. Nice touch on the switch! :)
