Title: Emerald Archon v2.1 Upgrade Post by: sedstiskyfaller on April 02, 2014, 12:56:44 AM Hi all!
Below is my Archon v2.1 with the new Emerald Driver! I have loved the idea of the Emerald Driver ever since it came out and finally decided to get it in my Archon. It has a 4-channel RGBW driver with a silver AV switch dedicated to channel 4. I ordered it set to AB with a pulse to GB and silver FoC, which came out having a tint of red to it but that's to be expected without using channel 4. I am hoping to be able to get access to the driver program soon to change some of the settings for timing and maybe take some of the red out of the FoC. Let me know what you think! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eg6K50sSIbo#ws (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eg6K50sSIbo#ws) Title: Re: Emerald Archon v2.1 Upgrade Post by: Darth Burgaar on April 03, 2014, 05:15:16 AM Mate! nice review. Glad you like the upgrade to you Archon! The Emerald driver is sweet isn't it?! Hey I had a thought though? Have you got a mate or family member that would mind if you downloaded the Obsidian Launcher to their PC? So you can do some custom configurations? :)

I have thought about that, but I currently don't live near family and most of my friends have Macs as well so I'll have to see what I can do.

I like the colors. I gotta get at least one Emerald saber. I have one regular Obsidian saber so yeah. Gotta take it up a notch. I'll send in my Bellicose for a complete Emerald upgrade eventually though. Would be sweet for that saber. Keep Guardian Blue then shimmer to Arctic Blue and FOC to yellow for a more real movie effect, that's probably what will be on my regular Emerald saber as well. Or do it opposite and have the main blade color to Arctic Blue then pulse to Guardian then FOC to yellow. Not really sure yet. I'd need to figure out good timings too for like that Episode 3 look.

You should definitely have at least one and it should be your favorite saber. I originally wanted AB shimmer to GB with straight silver FoC, but I like the AB shimmer to silver for sure. I hadn't thought of trying a yellow FoC though, but I think it would look cool!

The button adds so much to it.
