Alias ... Jedimoves meant no offense. He was just pointing out that when it comes to Luxeons they don't make a purple and the word is that they will never be able to. So unless you are using a UV type LED ... the only way to achieve a purple color is to come up with a trick ... like a bright white LED and a filter of some kind. Or what MR did ... using blue LED's and a redish diffuser of some kind ... which in my opinion, having owned a Mace, does not work well. I have also tried the filter style and not been happy with the outcome. But I have seen pics of a few sabers built by people that say they have found the best balance to make the purple look decent.
So Jedimoves was just pointing out that other than a UV led, all other purple sabers are using a trick to achieve the color and they aren't "true purple". And, from my experience with filters, it is never going to be as good as a Luxeon of that color. So having a "true blue" luxeon would be better than a white luxeon with a blue filter. And chances are, having a true purple LED will look much nicer than using a white LED with a purple filter.
Aluke123 ... don't worry, these are the real deal ... all real purple. And the color is awesome in person. I'll be sure to post pics as soon as I can get one of my own.
