Frequently Asked Questions and other information.
(I will add FAQs as they arise)
Q. What type of soundboard/driver are you using?
A. Plecter Labs Crystal Focus V5.
Q. What type of LED are you using?
A. LEDengin 10W Blue set up for FoC.
Q. What type of batteries are you using?
A. Two Li-ion 17500.
Q. Can I pick who does my install?
A. I am sorry, but no you can not. As each installer is getting a set number of sabers to install, I cannot guarantee equal distribution to my installers if I offer that choice to you.
Q. Can I pick what number saber I get.
A. No.
Q. What kind of paint will the black parts be?
A. Black anodizing.
Q. How soon do I need to pay my deposit?
A. Your deposit is due to guarantee your spot. Only those who have paid their deposit will be listed in the 'Official Order List'.
Q. Can I have a crystal chamber in my saber?
A. No. This saber was designed with accuracy and function in mind. As such, internal space is at a premium. I did not design this saber to have any sort of exposeable chamber.
Q. Can I buy an empty hilt?
A. No.
Q. Can I get a 1" blade.
A. No. Several reasons. Primarily, accuracy was of upmost importance to me on this saber and it would change the groove section too much to make a 1" blade fit.
Q. Can I have someone else not on your installer list do my install?
A. No.
Q. Will you take trades for payment?
A. Yes, as long as you want to trade US dollars for your saber. I do not accept goats, chickens, cows or other sabers as means of payment.
Q. How soon will be these finished.
A. Hard to say. I am planning on 3-4 months for machining. The aquisition of the soundboards is the unkown I can't plan for at the present time.
Q. Rumble Motor?
A. No. It was not in thr original design because there just isn't enough room to fit it in properly.
Q. What number saber will I get?
A. I don't know. I have not decided how numbers will be allocated yet.
Q. Are you going to do a Qui-Gonn next?
A. I have no idea.
Q. Can you put a crystal chamber in this saber?
A. No. And the next person that asks will not get a saber. I thought I made it clear with my description and cut away pictures. Where would you put it given the construction and utter lack of space inside the hilt? Besides, I don't ever remember Obi Wan opening his saber to show us his crystal chamber.
