Darth Cylak Offline Junior Member Posts: 31 Thank you received: 3	So I currently have a Hero tier Sinister Prophecy that has a red/red led mix to achieve a 12w red; I am planning on purchasing a Champion tier Bane with 12w red, and have no need for two pure red sabers. I would like to reconfigure the led setup in the SP for a 12w indigo blade. What led(s) would I need to purchase and have installed to achieve this?

I think their 12w indigo is a bit more complicated than just 3 deep blue, 1 red, as they're still figuring out how to properly resistor the new 12w+ to achieve the same shade of indigo they achieved with resistors on the 12w.

Quick Question on Indigo. I'm about to get my first SF through the KS and I'm torn on color choice. Can anyone here compare Indigo to the US equivalent? Why?

I currently have a "Deep Purple" LED from US that I am not real pleased with. Actually I've had 2. The first one was a mess - tip to middle was blue, middle to emitter was red. After having to pay shipping both ways to get it "fixed" I ended up with an LED that looks more fuschia/pink than it does deep purple.

To get a purple color I ended up with an Emerald board with a RBGW LED to mix an ok purple, but it still doesn't seem as purple as the pictures I've seen of the SF Indigo. However, I know photos are notoriously misleading depending on lighting, camera lens, etc.

Thus I was wondering if anyone had actual experience seeing the two side by side.
