Cool.

Here's a suggestion - I tried this today when my Nephews were over and they thought it was "really cool".

Blade Color - Sunrider's Destiny (per cstoehr's settings above):

R - 000
G - 255
B - 041
A - 000

FOC - Gold

R - 255
G - 255
B - 000
A - 255

Normally I prefer a more subtle FOC in line with the Blade Color, but this is a pretty great looking combo.

I discovered something interesting today.  Those settings for Sunrider's Destiny were set before Ultra Sabers shipped my Emerald Dark War Glaive.  Today I powered up my Dark Prophecy single color Sunrider's Destiny which uses a color disk and compared it to the Green 255 Blue 41.  The two colors don't match.  I made adjustments on the Dark War Glaive color until it matched the Dark Prophecy color.  The resulting Emerald settings were Green 255 Blue 20.

You said you have a Color Disk in there for SRD? Is that how it came from US?

I'm kinda surprised.  Only 20 on Blue sounds to me like the setting for Emerald Green.  I'll have to try both now and compare side by side.

And the color I got with your original setting was exactly what I was expecting for SRD based on all the pics I've seen (in particular the one Hazard posted where he points out the center of the Blade, the hue in that part is extremely close to the actual color).

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.

The stunt Dark Prophecy with Sunrider's Destiny was a raffle prize.  Yes it was sent from Ultra Sabers with the color disk in it.  Before I knew what the color was, I asked Emory.  When I mentioned it had a greenish color disk at the base of the blade, he said the color was indeed Sunrider's Destiny because it was the only color using that particular color disk.

Hmmm.  Interesting.  I'll have to ask around.  The fact that it was a Raffle prize makes me wonder if there was an issue with the LED Unit & Resistor which is why it needed a color disk as well - and why it was given away as opposed to sold.

Reason I'm saying that is, my 1st place 2 channel Crimson Scorpion from the last raffle came with 2 boards, but only 1 was functional - hence why it was used as a 2 channel freebie. It was intended to be a 4 channel but the 2nd board doesn't work.

I don't think it was a problem saber.  Here's the text of Emory's email to me.  Judge for yourself.

Hello Charles,

That is the key piece of information I needed   That is definitely SRD, that is the only color we use that disc for.

Hope that helps. Thanks for choosing Ultrasabers. Feel free to email us here with any other questions or concerns.

Emory,

I forgot to mention that there is a greenish color disk at the base of the blade.

Hello Charles,

Thank you for sending those pictures.  Unfortunately, from these pictures I can be sure what color this is.  It appears to be either Consular Green or Sun Rider’s Destiny.  Please remove one of the batteries from your saber then put it back into the battery pack upside-down.  With a battery installed upside-down does the color of the saber change at all?  If so, can you please describe how the color changes?

Would you be able to provide another picture of this saber by itself in a dark or dimly lit room?

Thanks for choosing Ultrasabers. Feel free to email us here with any other questions or concerns.

I ordered a Raven in SRD last year that came with the colored disk. I also have an older SRD MLS. I like the look of the mixed LED's better.

Interesting; so they did/do use color disks for at least SRD.

I assumed all mixed non-Emerald blade colors were achieved via resistors on the LEDs to get the right hue.

Now I am curious what the Emerald setting is for Emerald Green when compared to a regular US ordered with that color.

I didn't know they used color discs.  I just checked my SRD Consular I got a couple of years ago and there is no color disc, it's an LEDEngine LED.

My SRD Dominix V4 has the colour disc in it too. I took the LED apart and with some precise cutting you could fit another disc in there to change the hue. BUT the LED used in SRD is still a mix of B/G and also employs the disc in my setup any way.

I know you're new around here, my Friend, but that is simply no excuse for such low quality potatoes!

It starts with lousy potatoes and before you know it, people are posting lousy zucchini & rotten squash!
