I am kind of greedy.
The reason I am such a fan of SF and so ardent an advocate was this bad-red-baby right here. Right after (literally a week) I placed my order the 12w sabers came out and while those in the community were "in the know" I didn't know where to check for such news and was caught totally off-guard.
Brightness is the single MOST important thing to me, as I told Phillip and together we came up with a pretty bad-ass solution with the Hero Spark Fury I had ordered:
Cross-wire all the LEDs to light up together, make them all red and voila: 12w multi-font Spark board red saber!
This was intentionally bought to be USED as a training weapon (I call it Force-sensitive exercise equipment) and already has a few dings and scratches. Just means it's well loved. And gives me an excuse to get another one for wall-hanging purposes, hehe.
Very impressed with the quality and I made sure to include a picture of the blade in direct sunlight from outside. That picture was taken at 4p in August amidst clear daylight.
