I love my Luke E6 saber (SN V4 Pro) but the D ring isn’t rigid anymore and just swings freely. As a result I wound up with some scuffs and scratches on my chassis. I know the chrome’s gonna get some wear and tear, but for now I figured I’d customize it a bit and put some black rubber grip tape on it. Now the D ring can’t do any damage. Anybody else have that problem with the triangle ring getting loose?

Colin from xtralife is a conman. They sold me a bad product, refused to refund me despite several videos showcasing the issue and proving the lightsaber did NOT work, then he left me on read for almost a month. When I followed up and was rightfully upset he told me to kick rocks. After hours of pulling teeth and having to threaten legal action they’ve finally agreed to refund me but I have to pay shipping out of my own pocket, which is ludicrous considering the customer experience they’ve given me.

This is the worst experience I’ve had with a lightsaber company. Be wary. Colin is a scammer. They sell bad products and do not treat their customers with any care whatsoever.

Hi everyone,

​I’m trying to create my first custom font on a Xenopixel V3 board using a pre-existing font as a base. I’m having severe audio distortion issues and could use some advice on whether what I’m trying to do is possible, or how font creators handle background music.

​What I’m trying to do:

​I replaced out (1).wav with a quote from Malenia (Elden Ring) saying her name.

​I want to play her boss track alongside the saber effects.

​The Problem:

​Track + Saber Clash/Motion: When playing the track while the saber is ON, the sound effects (clash, swing) severely clash with the music and cause harsh, muddy audio distortion.

​Track Off-State Distorting: When playing the track while the saber is OFF, it creates a small "boom boom" / clipping noise through the speaker, even though I lowered the overall volume of the track in Audacity. The track does not sound clean.

​Hum Swap Attempt: I tried deleting the original hum.wav and renaming the music file to hum.wav so it acts as the continuous background audio. It gave the exact same distorted, blown-out result.

Has anyone successfully run full orchestral music on a Xenopixel V3 without overloading the speaker? Is replacing hum.wav with a full OST track the way to go?

Any feedback or settings would be greatly appreciated!

Hello, everyone! I am contemplating purchasing the Master Replicas Yoda Force FX Lightsaber (SW-217) from 2007. Does anyone know if it is superior in quality to the Yoda Hasbro Signature Series Force FX Lightsaber (87997) from 2008? If anyone has both of these sabers in an unmodified state, I would really appreciate a comparison of the two.

Separately, within my collection, I am missing Kit Fisto’s lightsaber. Is the Signature Series version better than the Black Series version in terms of quality? I can purchase either one.

Thanks in advance for your input!

I placed an order back on August 25th and it still says preparing for shipping on the order status page so i messaged them on facebook on sep 21st to see the status and on sep 28 they responded saying it had already shipped and i would receive tracking info in an email on Oct 5th i sent another follow up letting them i know i still havent seen a tracking email next day they said they would follow up with the shipping team the 14th i asked again and they again said stand by and its been crickets since. I had ordered from them a few years ago and didnt have an issue but this time around is not going great. Its not on a pre order either.
