Alright, in the last few months I have gotten into a couple of expensive hobbies, sabers and 501st Legion. Ultra Sabers has been kind enough to feed my desire for quality and beauty on the Saber front and here are my latest acquisitions, a grab bag and 4 $75 mystery boxes: Grab Bag: Aeon V4 with AV switch in Arctic Blue:  Mystery Box 1: A Dark Sentinel V4 with windows and AV switch in Artic Blue:  Mystery Box 2: Dark Initiate LE V4 with windows and AV Switch in Arctic Blue:  Mystery Box 3: Dominix V4 LE with AV switch in Blue:  Mystery Box 4: Well what do we have poking out here? That looks interesting...   Well, how about that. It's a Fulcrum with Emerald LED controls and basic sound! Out of a $75 mystery box!?! Thank you Ultra Sabers! That is amazing! I could not find a way to configure this in the shop, but a Fulcrum with just Emerald is $345, so I imagine the sound puts it around $400!  The most striking thing about this saber, other than the bold design, is the heft! This guy is heavy! If all else fails it would make a pretty fine bludgeon! Full review incoming in a few days for this fine piece of craftsmanship! I just wanted to get a post up in between swinging this Fulcrum around! Thanks again Ultra Sabers! You guys rock! |

I totally took my time going through your post, letting each reveal happen one at a time  Great hilts, but all that blue was starting to get to me lol. Then with the last one and that peice sticking out, at first I thought Graflex bunny ears - but no a Fulcrum in emerald. Congrats and just awesome seeing all you got in  |

Emerald with Lite sound? Wow, I've never heard of that. Interesting. Those are some fine sabers, I have most of those (don't have a Fulcrum) and they're all great hilts.  |

Yeah take out the motherboard, if you see two different ports you have Emerald with V3 sound. Not lite sound. You can change the sound fonts on the V3 but have to hook up to a computer to do it.

Nice score on that Fulcrum.
Just ordered another mystery box myself. Hope I get something similar.

It must be a V3 then. The interior boards look pretty much the same as my emerald + V4 Emperor's Hand with each board having a mini USB port. I am not up on the V3 at all so when I held the switch down and didn't get the obsidian splash notification, I assumed it was a lite. I also tried connecting it to the software and it wouldn't pick up that board. I was able to get emerald connected with no problem. It looks like I will have to give it another go with the software. Frankly, I was more than happy with it even with lite sound, so I just went back to swinging it:) If it is a V3 that is even more amazing. That is a whole lot of saber for $75! |

Nice sabers for sure. At least the Emerald Green breaks up the blues a bit  |

Yeah V3 you can't change with the button/switch. I have V3 on a saber I got in a mystery box also but really don't have a computer to hook it up to besides my wife's. So haven't messed with it yet. Sent from my XT1650 using Tapatalk |

Usually with the sound board the batteries need some fresh charge in them for the software to pick it up. That'll prob fix the connection issue. |

Looks like the force is trying to tell you blue is your color. Even that awesome Fulcrum looks to have a touch of blue in the first pic.
