Certainly the FIRST! review Smiley Cool to see it and get a feel for its size relative to others, and I definitely think it looks really cool in orange. Great choices!

Laughed at your comment about Canada... Ultrasabers knows no boundaries, man.  They will reach you wherever you may dwell!

LOVE the Orange FOC to Red!  I'm going to try Dark Violet Amethyst FOC to Red when I get mine, but definitely going to try the Orange FOC to Red, too.  Great instinct on this one, guy.  Thanks for posting this video!

It looks super nice in person! Great to see someone review it so soon too.

I think the proportions are better than I originally imagined and I'm super interested in that accent material. Is it rubberized would you say?

Thanks for the review, RedMileJedi! Have a point  Smiley

It's not rubber. Hard to explain. It's thin...almost like a tough polycarbonite material.

...and cheers. Thanks everyone for the feedback!

Nice. Definitely gonna get me one =] How does the button head retention screw hold up? I remember the OLDER Liberators having them and they didn't really press against the blade all that well back then though

Seems to be nice and tight. You also need to unscrew the top gold emitter to allow the blade to slide out easier.

That reminds me of something I meant to ask: Is the emitter MHS compatible?

That's a great question...I wish I knew how to answer it.

I don't like to take my sabers apart, except for when I change the batteries. How would I go about checking for you?

Unscrew the emitter and try it on another saber... Well, it does say on the website that both emitter and pommel are MHS compatible...

When it becomes available I can see people buying the emitter, taking the gold anodize off to make it silver or re-paint it black for a dark look Tongue Would be sweet though but would be one super small emitter. Wondering how this would work out then

Nice review of the new saber. Enjoy!

Deep confirms in the original Announcement that both Emitter & Pommel are MHS.  Smiley

Winning? Is that what you think it's about? I'm not trying to win. I'm not doing this because I want to beat someone, or because I hate someone, or because I want to blame someone. It's not because it's fun. God knows it's not because it's easy. It's not even because it works, because it hardly ever does. I do what I do because it's right! Because it's decent! And above all, it's kind! It's just that. Just kind.

Yet another solid review thanks RedMileJedi . . . points to you!  It does look stunning in FO i must say and i quite like the red FoC too.  The cut out in the switch section is quite the feature.  Congrats!



***  Edit  ***  A request for you I have RedMileJedi, could you post pics of you're Aeon LE V4 with the pommel from your Electrum Wind?  This would be the first gold accented hilt seen with the Electrum Wind gold accented pommel.
