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.

Choose the color of your blade!

Guardian Blue

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, Sun Rider's Destiny, Arctic Blue, Bane's Heart, Blue Violet Amethyst, Pyrestone Orange, and Sentinel Yellow are all made with multicolor RGB LEDs and combining multiple 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).

Diamond Flash on Clash

Emerald Driver Configuration

4 Channel Emerald Driver - RGBW LED

Flash on Clash

No Flash
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
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

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.

Blade Option

UltraEdge Midgrade
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.

Switch Type

Black GUARDED Switch
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, UltraProffie, NeoPixel, or Diamond Controller if your saber is configured to include them.

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 over the guarded switch.

AV Switch Channel

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

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

Include Day Blade

No Thanks
Day blades are a fantastic solution to keep your saber looking perfect during long days of brightly lit conventions, outdoor events, intense studio lighting, or times when you don't have your saber powered on.

Day Blades are 36" Heavy Grade blades, with a 1" diameter.

Please Note: A Day Blade's colored Polycarbonate will affect the appearance of the color of your saber's LED when it is ignited. Please make sure to select a Day Blade blade that best matches your saber's blade color!

Include Saber Stand

No Thanks
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
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
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 Belt Clip

No Thanks
A belt clip wheel is the knob on a lightsaber that allows you to attach the lightsaber to a belt clip and wear it on your belt.

A clip is the clip that you wear on your belt that allows you to hang your lightsabers from a belt clip 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 belt clip wheel. All Prophecy models, all Shock Models, The Bane, The Bellicose, The Overlord, The Guardian, The Graflex SE & CE, and The Consular are just a few of the sabers that come standard with a belt clip wheel and one does not have to be added or purchased.


You can purchase a belt clip wheel separately from here.

Install Belt Clip Wheel

No Thanks
A belt clip wheel is the knob on a lightsaber that allows you to attach the lightsaber to a covertec clip and wear it on your belt.

If your UltraSaber doesn't come standard with a belt clip wheel, you can have one added before it ships. 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.

Please keep instruction to 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 belt clip wheel location requests. Please do not use degrees or clock rotations or include image links for belt clip wheel location requests. A proper belt clip 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 belt clip wheel install.

Description

This is the Dark version of the Initiate V2. It’s identical in every way to the Initiate V2 except for the black anodized finish. Below is the standard description for the Initiate V2.

The Initiate has long been our best selling lightsaber and now it’s even better.

The new Initiate V2 is made from machined aluminum for even more durability. The lightsaber has machined grooves, an enlarged thoracic switch housing, and a reinforced emitter.

Originally the Initiate was created as a lightsaber for younglings who were just getting started. However, it was quickly realized that these lightsabers are excellent in their own right and suitable for warriors of all ages. This lightsaber is perfect not only for the younglings, but also for warriors who need a more compact lightsaber. It’s easy to conceal, and the size of this hilt also makes it perfect for dual wielding or as an off-hand lightsaber. The hilt measures 8.75 inches long and comes with a 24″ Initiate Ultra blade. The material is T6 aircraft grade aluminum. The pommel unscrews for easy battery access and is powered by regular alkaline batteries.

Please note that The Dark Initiate v2 cannot accept Obsidian sound or UltraProffie installations, and is not MHS compatible.

The Initiate v2 line is available in four finishes:
The Initiate v2 with solid silver body.
The Initiate LE v2 in silver with gold anodized accents.
The Dark Initiate v2 anodized in solid black.
The Dark Initiate LE v2 anodized in black with silver accents.
