Saber Forum

To sum up the video linked below, I'm quite happy with my recent acquisition of a Sentinel V4 with sound from Ultrasabers. Thanks to the team for their good work as always!

as a future owner of a dark sentinel v4 staff ( my first ,when it comes ) thank you for sharing.trying to see how it sizes up in the hands of others + point

Hey, Zontera (or anyone else who is intrigued by the possibilities of a white light and color filters), while the Color Discs from UltraSabers are pre-cut to the proper shape and size, they don’t offer a whole lot of options.  If you want to check things out with a WEALTH of color choices, try getting one or two (or one of each) of these color swatch books from Lee Filters.  https://shop.leefiltersusa.com/LEE-Swatch-Books_c4.htm. You’ll need to cut them to 1” circles, but the color variety is incredible, and you should be able to reproduce Blazing Red pretty well.

Of course, as you point out in your video, any time you apply a color filter to a beam of light, you will have less light available for the blade, so there are very good reasons for some people to just get the color LED they want.  For those who want the flexibility of low-cost color changes, the Adegan Silver blade with color filters (whether the Color Discs sold by US, or by using theater-quality color gels/films/filters like the Lee Color Swatch books) provides a decent option.

I'm glad I was able to help out. Can't wait to see your staff, should you post it.

And @Cyclops942: Good to know there are other options out there. In my case I never really needed the disks, the saber was meant to be white in the first place so I more added them out of curiosity than anything.

Nice review! I also have a Sentinel v4, but it's in blazing red, stunt only. I love the small customization you've already done to make it your own. As it was said to me once, "You've taken your first step into a much larger world."

Very fun looking saber; thank you for sharing.

Nice Sentinel V4 with the AS blade you have there, Zontera! I like the customization that you did to the hilt. It flows well with each other. Owning an AS hilt myself, they're underrated and have a nice bright blade but with room to change the color of the blade with discs or filters if one choose to. I actually like ti with the Grand Master pommel and may need to borrow that idea. Good stuff

Nice review
