I agree. Ultra Sabers makes some awesome stuff. I don't have one yet, but I definitely am planning on getting an Anakin ROTS Ultra Saber and Anakin AOTC Ultra Saber. Several of my friends have them and I must say that they are amazing. You can really fight hard with those things and don't have to worry about breaking electronics in the blades because there aren't any!

Ultra Sabers looks to be the way to go. I was wondering if anyone has purchased a DIY kit from them? If so, how did it turn out?
I'm looking at upgrading my Anakin ROTS to an Ultra conversion, but I haven't decided if I want to send it to ultra sabers or if I just want to order a new polycarb blade and DIY kit.
The latter seems to be the way to go price-wise. However, sending it gives it the quality guarantee, and the knowledge that the conversion is done by someone that knows what they are doing.

Do you intend on hardcore dueling? If so you'd be better served by a TCSS conversion kit.

I wish I had that to throw around right now, or I would go with the graflex. Alas, that must be at a later date.
I really don't want to do a lot of heavy dueling with my Anakin saber. I just wanted it to have a red led and a bit more sturdy blade.
I really like the graflex "styling" of the Anakin ROTS, but I want the red blade. Some would say to get a Vader, but I don't like the heiland/MPP flashgun styling. Yes I know...blasphemy!
My grandfather gave me a graflex 3-cell gun when I was 12 years old, but that is NOT going to be converted because it was his when he took photos for the local newspaper back in the day.
I have thought about a TCSS conversion as well, but that may be at a later time on another saber.

First of all hello to all, I'm a newbie, and I'm soooo glad to find other people with the same passion for sabers as myself. I have the Anakin ROTS luxeon conversion (as seen in pic), and I have the Mace ROTS stock MR that I'm waiting on funds to get converted . My brother has the Vader ESB ultrasaber, with the Adegan silver color with 12 color discs. While the colors aren't as bright as a single LED, they are still pretty awesome. The only thing is, the red disc is more pink than red, so if you're looking for a deep red, stay away from these!! We have weekly duels most of the summer. It's awesome to have people in the neighborhood come outside to watch us! I've used all the saber tutorials that I can find, and with practice, they really pay off. Anyway, I'm thinking of sending my Mace saber to Ultra for a conversion, but jedi saber smith does excellent work as well. The thing that probably will sway my decision is the Ultra blade. I bought one off Ultra's ebay store, which also fit my non-Ultra conversion, and just let me say that my Anakin is at least 20 percent brighter with the fiber optic blade. Well worth the 25 bucks!!!! My Anakin is a beautiful Cyan color, which no pic can capture correctly. You just have to see it to appreciate it. Sorry for the novel, but I had alot to say!! Happy dueling!!

Darth Morbius, if you want a red Lux, then send your Anakin to JSS (jedisabersmith.com) he does great work and will be glad to help you out. Contact him through the website

Thanx for the heads up on JSS. I'll take a look there too. I'm kind of just shopping around first because this will be my first conversion done, and I want to make sure to do my homework first. SInce I found this place, I have had nothing but all the best recommendations so far. Unlike a few other boards out there.... I think I'll hang for a while heh heh!
