Title: 50 Shades of Sentinal Yellow Post by: srams on October 24, 2012, 06:08:46 AM Well more like 10. Please forgive my little art project here, but I thought this was interesting. I finally bought another US back in June aporox. 3 years after i bought two PVC sabers from them. I got a Dark phantom Initiate V3 in SY. (One went to me and the other went toward a saber I made for a client.) I imediately noticed that with new batteries and old batteries the colors varried significantly. At first I didnt like this and thought it was a little iffy on US's part but now I really like it! Its like instead of having to change color discs on an AS, just switch to stronger or weaker batteries! Here is a gradual breakdown of how the SY color shifts. I think its pretty cool. I hope all you guys do too. (Kham did I gt your attention yet??? ;D)
This is actually the RGB bumped a little and it's only activating the Green. I think the wiring is lose. (http://i1049.photobucket.com/albums/s397/sramsdell/DSC04003.jpg) Now we see the thing wired right (I guess) with brand new batteries! And they get weaker from here...

These and great photos that showcase 10 different colors, each pictures' glow is different than the previous or the one after. It's like the rainbow of my dreams; green to red with yellow in the middle. lol Points, dude, points. Title: Re: 50 Shades of Sentinal Yellow Post by: srams on October 24, 2012, 06:30:02 AM HAHAHA! I love that you were the first to comment on this! And also, Thank You!
Title: Re: 50 Shades of Sentinal Yellow Post by: Thonolan on October 24, 2012, 06:38:26 AM building out my own SY (resistor on an SRD mod popped, so I figured i'd play around.) shooting for #5
thanks for the shots! Title: Re: 50 Shades of Sentinal Yellow Post by: Sky Dragon c5 on October 24, 2012, 03:20:21 PM Coolo goes from gold to almost red.
Title: Re: 50 Shades of Sentinal Yellow Post by: CrossingStar on October 24, 2012, 04:17:56 PM Very nice! I suppose I should try SY sometime.
Title: Re: 50 Shades of Sentinal Yellow Post by: Noriko on October 24, 2012, 04:35:57 PM That's a nice effect. Looks like you're slowly going over to the dark side as the batteries get weaker.
Which kind of battery setup do you have, standard or Li-Ion? Title: Re: 50 Shades of Sentinal Yellow Post by: Vex on October 24, 2012, 04:57:19 PM Very wild! Well done.
Title: Re: 50 Shades of Sentinal Yellow Post by: srams on October 24, 2012, 05:09:08 PM These are standard alky's I don't think this would happen with lith ions. My favorite colors are the golden ones.
Title: Re: 50 Shades of Sentinal Yellow Post by: srams on October 24, 2012, 08:53:46 PM Counting the green pic as #1, 4, 5, and 6 are my favorites.
Noriko that's a great way to look at it I didn't think of that! Title: Re: 50 Shades of Sentinal Yellow Post by: CrossingStar on October 24, 2012, 09:32:01 PM That's a nice effect. Looks like you're slowly going over to the dark side as the batteries get weaker. Haha! I didn't think of that one, Nori :) Title: Re: 50 Shades of Sentinal Yellow Post by: Noriko on October 24, 2012, 09:51:30 PM Would be sweet to have some kind of "mood saber". When you feel angry the blade turns red. 8)

When you feel angry the blade turns red. 8) I'm sure this could be done with an RGB setup and functionality added to the Obsidian launcher. Maybe this should go to the wish thread? |
