For those who have a purple or indigo saber, which color do you prefer and why? I can't decide between ordering a purple or indigo saber and need some advice. Which color is more of a true purple? I really don't want my saber to look pinkish at all so should I just go with indigo?

I have a 12w+ purple jade and it is definitely purple, until the battery starts to get low and it slowly shifts to a pink. Its a good indicator to stop playing with it and charge it.

You should go with indigo if you dont want your saber to look pinkish. Indigo is just a darker version of purple, and preferred by many dark side wielders. I think it doesnt go well with the light side of the force as much as it does with the dark side.

Here's a pic that will make you wanna buy an indigo saber asap,

It'd be nice if people could identify the color of their saber blades in reviews by putting their camera up close to the blade to reduce the glare and get the actual color.

I wouldn't want any pink either, and I actually was wondering if indigo or plain purple would be best for my next saber purchase (likely to be a fury). That indigo looks like the way to go, I love the sample pictures!

Now don't get me wrong, the purple LED is amazing too. I'd probably end up doing the mainstream thing and get that if I ever order a reborn. It seems like for a darker, more brooding purple, indigo is the perfect choice.

SF purple is definitely more of a Mace Windu purple (Samuel L. Jackson referred to it in one of the movie commentaries as the "violet light"), while SF indigo is more of a "royal" purple.

Maybe that is something being added soon? I did see a good amount of people request it before. Or at least mention that they wanted it.

cmasters16,
For those who have a purple or indigo saber, which color do you prefer and why? I can't decide between ordering a purple or indigo saber and need some advice. Which color is more of a true purple? I really don't want my saber to look pinkish at all so should I just go with indigo?
All three are beautiful colours IMO (if you include Pink). I have Purple and an incoming Indigo (and a Pink on a Wish-List). For your scenario though, is it an option to go QC and have both? I view Purple as a neutral shade centred between both sides of the Force. When influenced by actions of Light, for me, Pink represents this and when lured by the Dark, Indigo projects this emotion. The similarities between Purple & Indigo are subtle however (to go against the majority grain) feel that Pink shouldn't be dismissed either.

Execute66 demonstrates a great Pink with his Monarch, much like xyster does with his Consular. Another example I'd like to draw is Brax's Indigo Bane.

The following are examples of Purple on my Monarch:





To settle on one, go with the one that you are drawn to the most. :)

I have both, they are each beautiful in their own way. Purple is purple, whereas Indigo you can see hints of dark blue, which is what Indigo means. So it depends if you are looking for one solid color (more or less) or prefer a visible hint of another that matches well with purple.

Indigo reminds me of Hades from God of War game series, which is a character I love. So I still recommend indigo
