Hey guys.. I picked up the Anakin Ep 3 Force FX saber off eBay, mint condition. I should've known that these things photograph much brighter than they really are in person.  So here's a typical image of what you see on the web..  And here's a fairly true-to-life shot I took by adjusting my exposure. This is pretty much what it looks like to the human eye, not a camera..and it's actually not quite as bright as this, just a tad dimmer:  Kind of a shame. Not sure if I should just try to resell it on eBay, or what.. any thoughts or suggestions? |

I avoided them because it looks like the light fades near the tip (since there's no LEDs in the blade like there are in the MR version). So.. let's say I wanted to convert my MR saber. Where do I start? How much? I want bright.. like "hurt my eyes" bright  |

hyperdynelabs.com/hyperblade/main.phpThese are the brightest on the market. Not that much brighter than luxeon. But the brightest. The sound isn't too good either, but I don't know for sure. I've never seen one.

Yeah i know what you mean the tip is mainly what is disappointing me at the moment, but i plan to convert the blade over around tax time (too many good video games to blow my money on till then) to a blade by hyperdynelabs.com/hyperblade/main.php they look great but once again in the photos the tip isnt that good, the only good tip lighting job i have seen is the Ultrasabers tips cause the are made to bounce light and dont seem to have the dim tip effect of other blades. i am gonna try to see if I can get a Ultrablades tip and add it to the Hyperblade conversion. ill let you guys know how it turns out. See what I mean about the tip:  |
