I am sorry if I am in the wrong spot to be asking (new here) if it is please point me in the right direction, but I was wondering if the purple blade color was more towards the dark purple, the exact mix between red and blue, or kind of ventured more towards the pink color, cause I love the perfect mix and dark purple but can't stand the purple-pink color and would rather a blue... Please help!

If that's the case take a look at indigo instead of purple. There are a number of reviews you can find in both colors now. I'm still waiting on my first saber and decided to go with indigo for similar reasons.

I have been warned that cameras don't always capture the color correctly at the use filters and settings to compensate for the brightness which can throw off the color. When looking at images of colored blades the common suggestion is to look at the edge of the aura given off.

Wow thanks! I looked at it and that is what I am going with! Thanks again, bye

Could we have some more added to the customs shop bit? I'm still not clear on what exactly entails the customs shop, like how ordering from them is different, or if they do complete sabers or just customization upgrades.

Very helpful FAQ. Only one thing I noticed that wasn't addressed: what exactly is 'LED Quick Connect'? It's a payable option in sabers of Warrior-class up, and I'd like to know what it means so that I don't go spending money on something I may not need.

The quick-connects are small plugs added to the wires of the LED that allow for easier, solder-free swapping of LED modules. The 5 dollars is probably worth it for the connectors and soldering work if you're not familiar and plan to swap out your LED often. If you're an electronics hobbyist you'll recognize them as Deans micro connectors.

I had a question, now that I think about it. In terms of saber electronics how in-depth are we allowed to go? For example, if I wanted to basically start a knowledge dump for how a saber fundamentally works would that be allowed? I understand if Saberforge would prefer me not discussing anything bordering on "trade secrets," but I haven't been able to find any clear definition if there is a line that should not be crossed.

I have one which I did not see, and if I missed it then I apologize. The SF site says the warranty is one year from date of purchase, but in my case for instance I got my sabers 3 months after I actually purchased them. So do warranties start before were ever get our sabers or when they are confirmed as delivered?

Warranties are one of those case-by-case things that are best handled directly from a customer service rep. so you might want to ask This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. about it.

Warranties begin from when you received the saber.

LED quick connects are quick plug-style connectors installed on the LED wires so that you can easily remove and swap out the LED module in your hilt (in any hilt that is compatible with the quick connect system) and change the color of your saber without the need to know how to solder the wires and connect the LED to the board or battery pack directly.
