Diamond Controller LED Type

RGBW LED [Recommended] [edit]

Please select the type of LED you would like equipped in your Diamond Saber. With an RGBW LED you will have White (Silver) connected to channel 4 and will be able to create much purer whites. With RGBA will have Amber (Orange) connected to channel 4 and can use this for different color mixing and will have to mix Red, Green, and Blue to create White (Silver).

Choose the color of your blade!

Guardian Blue [edit]

Choose the color of your blade!

Blazing Red, Consular Green, Guardian Blue, Fire Orange, and Adegan Silver are all made with single diode High Powered LEDs.

Violet Amethyst, Sunrider's Destinty, and Arctic Blue are all made with multicolor RGB LEDs and combining two diodes to create the Blade Color.

Tri Blazing Red, Tri Consular Green, Tri Guardian Blue, Tri Fire Orange, Tri Arctic Blue and Tri Adegan Silver are all made using Tri Cree LEDs with all three diodes wired together. [Not compatible with Flash on Clash]

To use color discs you remove the blade, drop a disc down the blade socket, then replace the blade. These only work properly with the Adegan Silver blade color. Colors obtained using color discs create a blade that is significantly dimmer than if you just ordered that color blade standalone (for example Guardian Blue is much brighter than using a blue color disc).

−

UltraPixel Blade Color

UltraPixel String Blade [edit]

With the power of the UltraPixel String Blade every color in the Ultra Sabers arsenal is at your fingertips with built in Flash on Clash.

>> If you want us to ship your saber with a preset color right out the box you can request this in the order notes at checkout.

All UltraPixel String Blades are 36” Standard Size Ultraedge Midgrade Blades with Pointed Tips.

Please see the video below for instructions on how to change the color with a mere flick of your wrist using your UltraPixel String Blade.

No Flash [edit]

PLEASE NOTE: Flash on Clash is not possible with Tri Cree LEDs. If you have selected a Tri-Cree LED, then your saber cannot support Flash on Clash. You can only have one or the other. If you would like to add Flash on Clash, please go back and select a non-Tri-Cree LED blade color.

−

Obsidian Lite Battery Configuration

Standard Setup [edit]

The Obsidian Lite operates with the Standard Setup. Standard Setup is a setup that uses regular AAA batteries to power your saber. (4xAAA batteries for all colors). You can use regular Alkaline batteries or rechargeable NiMh batteries (not provided).

Li-Ion Setup is not an option on sabers equipped with the Obsidian Lite soundboard. If you are interested in a Li-Ion battery setup please go for a saber equipped with Premium Sound.

−

Switch Hole Type

Guarded Switch Hole Type [edit]

Choose the switch hole type for your empty hilt!

Guarded Switch Hole Type: Your empty hilt will have a switch hole drilled to work with our normal guarded switches. These switches are meant to be PRESS FIT into the switch hole. No backing nut or adhesive required.

AV Switch Hole Type: Your empty hilt will have a switch hole ENLARGED to work with our 16mm AV switches. These switches are meant to be attached with a backing nut and/or High Performance hot melt adhesive.

Battery Configuration

Standard Setup [edit]

***The VP1 Charger is HIGHLY recommended for all Li-Ion setups. This is by far the superior charger for Li-Ion battery care and maintenance.***

Standard Setup is a setup that uses regular AAA batteries to power your saber. (4xAAA batteries for all colors). You can use regular Alkaline batteries or rechargeable NiMh batteries (not provided).

Our Li-Ion battery Setups are the superior battery pack configurations. A Li-Ion battery configuration is required for all sabers with sound. (Your saber only comes with sound if it says WITH SOUND in the title of the saber name)

*** Please note: If you put Li-Ion batteries into your lightsaber in the wrong orientation, it will cause irreparable damage to the lightsaber! ***

We recommend checking out our post that explains our Li-Ion Setups here! Li-Ion batteries (and charger if applicable) are always provided with these setups.

Blade Option

UltraEdge Midgrade [edit]

Select what type of blade you want to come with your UltraSaber.

> Mid-Grade
Mid-Grade blades are an excellent all around choice. They are lightweight and allow the true color of the LED through at maximum brightness. These blades are durable enough for light sparring, but are not as thick as our Heavy Grade blades and are therefore not recommended for full contact/ heavy dueling.

> UltraEdge
UltraEdge blades are available in the above Mid & Heavy grades, and are created from a white polycarbonate tube providing a thick, bright blade. The white polycarbonate creates a FULLER blade look but isn't as bright as non-Ultraedge blades.

> Heavy Grade & Ultra Edge Heavy Grade
Our Heavy Grade blades weigh literally twice as much as the Mid-Grade blades, and they do trade off a bit of brightness in exchange for their brutal strength. These blades are recommended blade for those who intend on full contact dueling or sparring against wooden Bokken or similar weaponry.

For more detailed information, check out our SaberForum post that explains the difference between each of our available lightsaber blade types here. (Link will open in a new tab)

-Update firmware with Launcher
-Unlimited Awesomeness

Obsidian Lite Sound

Obsidian Lite Soundboard [edit]

The Obsidian Lite Soundboard is the more cost effective option for customers that want sound in their Ultrasaber but don't need all the extra features or just want to save some cash! The Obsidian Lite operates with the Standard Setup. Standard Setup is a setup that uses regular AAA batteries to power your saber. (4xAAA batteries for all colors). You can use regular Alkaline batteries or rechargeable NiMh batteries (not provided). Li-Ion Setup is not an option on sabers equipped with the Obsidian Lite soundboard. If you are interested in a Li-Ion battery setup please go for a saber equipped with Premium Sound.

The Obsidian Lite Soundboard still uses the same speaker and still provides a loud and awesome sound experience with your Ultrasaber. You still get multiple clash (impact) sounds, multiple motion (woosh, woosh) sounds, a power up sound, a power down sound, a boot sound, an idle hum, and a lockup sound. So there is nothing lacking in that department. The default Obsidian soundfont comes pre-installed on your saber in its entirety.

However, by opting for the Lite version of the Obsidian soundboard you do lose the USB port on your saber and do not have the option to change your soundfont or adjust your hardware parameters. You also lose the option to have multiple soundfonts installed on your saber at one time.

You can watch a video that goes over the features of the Obsidian Lite soundboard here.

Switch Type

Guarded Switch [edit]

Select your lightsaber's A/V Switch. The AV Switch will control the power to the saber as well as allow you to operate the Obsidian Soundboard, Emerald Driver, or Diamond Controller if your saber is configured to include them.

UltraSabers-Lightsaber-AV-Switches

Select from the standard Guarded switch, an illuminated or non-illuminated AV Switch switch here. These AV switches are just for cosmetic purposes- they make your saber look cool, they do not serve for any additional functionality, and are not required for any additional functionality.

***Non Illuminated AV Switch on LEFT. Guarded Switch on RIGHT. Sabers in picture are shown for reference only. Guarded Switches are BLACK on Sabers with Sound. Guarded Switches are Silver, Red, or Blue on Sabers WITHOUT Sound.***

−

AV Switch Channel

Channel 4 (Dedicated to AV Switch) [Recommended] [edit]

This option ONLY applies if you selected an illuminated AV Switch. If you did not opt for an illuminated AV Switch then please disregard this option.

Also, AV Switches do NOT change colors. Once you select a color it will always be that color. This option only dictates how we supply power to the LED on the illuminated AV switch.

−

Choose Blade Tip Type

Round Tip [edit]

Round Tips look round and pointed tips look pointed. There is absolutely no other difference.

There is a surcharge for pointed tips because we do not stock these and would have to custom make the blade for you. They are not superior in any way. It is just a preference if you want your tip to be round or pointed.

99% of Ultrasaber blades are made with round tips.

−

Blade Retention Screw Wrench

No Thanks [edit]

The Blade Retention Screw Wrench is just the small allen wrench required to remove the blade. This wrench is NOT required to hold the blade in place. That screw is provided standard with every Ultrasaber.

You can also purchase these separately from any hardware store, or you may already own a set of these. Purchasing this one guarantees that you will get the correct size wrench for the screw in your Ultrasaber. Using the wrong size wrench can strip your retention screw.

All Ultrasaber retention screws require Standard size hex wrenches, DO NOT USE METRIC SIZE WRENCHES, you will strip the screw.

−

Include Blade Plug

No Thanks [edit]

Blade Plugs are designed to be inserted in your saber when the blade is removed to protect your LEDs. They give the hilt a cool look when the saber is ignited, and prevent you from shining a high powered LED directly into yours or someone else's eyes.

UltraSabers-Lightsaber-Blade-Plug-Off

Select an option above to see illuminated examples of each blade plug.

−

Include Saber Stand

No Thanks [edit]

Very basic assembly is required for stands. Any damage from assembling incorrectly is not covered under warranty.

***Sabers in pictures are NOT included with the stand, and are only shown for reference***

−

Include MICRO USB Cable

No Thanks [edit]

A MICRO USB cable is needed in order to interface your saber's Diamond Controller with the Ultrasabers Launcher on your computer when changing your installed fonts, effects, and gestures.

You can download the Ultrasabers Launcher for the Diamond Controller here.

[Note: This cable is NOT used for any charging purposes]

−

Include MINI USB Cable

No Thanks [edit]

A MINI USB cable is needed in order to interface your saber's Obsidian Soundboard or Emerald Driver with the Obsidian Launcher on your computer when changing your installed soundfonts or blade color.

You can download the Obsidian Launcher here.

[Note: This cable is NOT used for any charging purposes]

−

Include Covertec Clip

No Thanks [edit]

A covertec wheel is the knob on a lightsaber that allows you to attach the lightsaber to a covertec clip and wear it on your belt.

A covertec clip is the clip that you wear on your belt that allows you to hang your lightsabers from a covertec wheel for costuming or to just carry your saber in general. This is typically done with the blade removed. The blades are removable on ALL Ultrasabers.

Not all Ultra Sabers come standard with a covertec wheel. All Prophecy models, all Shock Models, The Bane, The Bellicose, The Overlord, The Guardian, The Graflex SE & CE, and The Consular all come standard with a covertec wheel and one does not have to be added or purchased.

You can purchase a covertec wheel separately from here.

UltraSabers-Covertech-Wheels

If your UltraSaber doesn't come standard with a covertec wheel, you can have one added before it ships here and in the comments field of your order specify where on the hilt and what color covertec wheel (silver, black, or gold) and we'll take care of that for you before the saber ships.

If you would like to specify a location please let us know TWO things ONLY in the comments field of the order at checkout.

1: Left, Right, or Rear (activation switch representing the front) and
2. Near Pommel or Above Switch.

Those are the only two pieces of information we need for covertec wheel location requests. Please do not use degrees or clock rotations or include image links for covertec wheel location requests. A proper covertec wheel location request would be "Left Side Near Pommel" or "Rear Side Above Switch" or "Rear Side Near Pommel" etc. You can also not put anything in the comments field and we will select an excellent default location for your covertec wheel install.
