What's your favorite LED colors? I've been looking at the blues but the video saberforge posted on the different colors doesn't really show a big difference (at least I can't tell). In my eyes my favorites so far have to be Deep Blue and Cyan. Both are very different, one being a rich royal blue and the other being a beautiful turquoise color. Which one do you guys prefer? I'm open to suggestions.

I was thinking a weathered Redeemer hilt with either Cyan or Deep blue. Not too sure though.

Hi KenobiWan,

As I have posted elsewhere I was "called" by Green when I was able to buy a saber, but I do realise the importance of the Blue Graflex that started it all off.

Cyan might show off better against the weathered hilt,

But as the saying goes..

Kenobi Wan here's a pic of my weathered Consular w/12+ Cyan.




In the second photo the glare/flare you see is a good representation of the actual color.

Though I may be a Dark Lord :) my favorite is the Cyan.




Pictured above is my Silver Knight with 12W+ Cyan

Here is the Cyan from 10 years ago on my Parks saber.



Here is a custom Arctic Blue for my Phoenix.



If you're looking for a Turquoise though, you'll want to go with the Mint Green. It's the closest thing that SF offers to Turquoise. It looks great. Cyan is Cyan.

Ironically, even though blue is my favorite color and green follows somewhere in 4th place (behind orange and silver), I've always preferred green lightsabers. Most likely because I like Qui-Gon Jinn so much, I suppose, but also because you can literally use any strength or amount of green LEDs, and a saber will look very impressive.



I do have a particular attraction to amber, however.

Hi all,

Having seen my friend Eddlyss64's pic I had better state for the record I am a follower of Green, this is my fully charged 12W Champion Disciple at midnight. I also live on the top floor of a Hi-rise tower block so no outside lights to interfere.




This pic is in my review.

for reference the picture was taken with the inbuilt camera on my Acer Tablet computer with NO EFFECTS.

Green is what does it for me. When I saw how the green looked, it was a done deal!

Funnily enough, my favorite varies depending on how bright the manufacturer makes it. The brighter the shine the more brilliant the illusion/effect. Cyan is a great color. But I am waiting on a few sabers that are on order to have a better decision.

Deep blue would make it the ROTS Obi-Wan saber, but Cyan would make it uniquely yours.

As for my favorite saber color, I have to say yellow, specifically SF's 12w+ yellow. All others I've seen look like piss. I'm also a big fan of green sabers.

In my eyes, Artic Blue is ANH Luke, Light Blue doesn't really have a good movie representation (maybe some of the promo shots of Anakin and Obi-Wan for AOTC), Medium Blue is ESB Luke, and Deep Blue is ROTS Anakin and Obi-Wan. Out of those I like Deep Blue the best, but you really can't go wrong with any of them.
