as we discussed via email, the way the accent pad #1 settings function during poweron and poweroff could use some perfecting. I cannot remember if the issue existed on CFv6 or CFv5, but I do know that the luxeon mirror setting is interrupted by ignition and retraction animations of the accent leds on CFv6 LS. I seem to recall it working fine on the CFv6 regular version, but I'd have to ask Darth Smorgis, as his obi tpm has the same crystal configuration.
@ DS, if you see this, check in will ya?
Also, another general question about CFLS, how do you prevent (or reduce) the shadowing of the negative wires blocking the light? I can't imagine being able to pack the wires all the way across (7 wires wide x 1 wire thick) and I definitely noticed some shadowing on my blade. The only solution I could think of is to use a dual string with the negative wires going through the middle of the strands. I doubt I'd be able to pack 2 full strings plus my flash string into the MR foam though.
this is my string blade next to a single rebel green (from a color mixing saber). the camera isn't doing it justice though. the luxeon blade is much dimmer in comparison. Just wanted to show it off here as well.
