That's pretty normal for color mixing. Placement of the LED isn't all that relevant when the light is all being funneled down a narrow tube, to color mix, honestly. You're talking about moving the LEDs a fraction of an inch, that difference isn't going to be noticeable.
Those pictures look rather bright and accurate tho, to me... perhaps someone with more knowledge (someone at SF, if you send in an email) would have more information/advice on what may, if anything, be wrong with the LED in that unit. |

Green and amber LEDs has different forward voltage, so they shouldn't be mixed - they require different resistors. Try just put your blade on the place and take a picture - the light should diffuse and the blade should be quite uniform.

my 12W mint dissident looks bright in photos but is quite lackluster in the flesh, the battery is fully charged but it still seems on par with my 2007 6w blue epoch that runs on 3 AAAs
