Title: 2 channel drivers not available?!
Post by: samiam0502 on May 23, 2016, 01:58:28 AM
I was just shopping on ultrasabers.com and looking at the emerald manticore ce with sound that I am probably getting in awhile. Since the only colors I would really use would be red, blue and purple, I figured I would just get a 2 channel driver with R+B. When I got to the configuration option on the site, my only options were 4 channel RBGW and RGBA and no 2 channel options. This confuses me because I just looked at this yesterday and all of the 2 channel options were there. Does anyone have any idea why this is? Is it an error on the site?

Huh.  That is interesting.  I wonder if they removed the two-channel option due to costs, or if they are doing an upgrade that negates having only two channels?

Indeed that's a puzzle that only US knows. Does make me wonder that's for sure. There are Alot of people that have channels including myself for same reason just wanted 2x colors , for specific hilts so they can buy ore sabers on general and save some cash in the process.  I hope it's not gone all together.
        Unless US loves us so much and because sales are through the roof they just offer 4 channel only and at a lower cost. That would be. A nice day dream ;D

Thank you so much for your responses! I actually emailed US after I posted this and so I want to share reply I got:

"Thank you for your interest in Ultrasabers. At this time we are not able to offer the 2-channel Emerald Drivers; I am very sorry about that. We will have these re-listed on the website once these are available again, but I do not have any information on when this will be."

This is an exact quote from the email I got back from US costomer service. Now obviously this is a disappointment, but he said that they'll be relisted once they're available so I hope that ends up being soon. My only question is why would they not be available? It is pretty weird that there wasn't any announcement about it either.

Anyway, I hope this thread helps anyone who is wondering about this and please tell us if you happen know what's going on with this.

Could just be a stock issue. From what I remember, 2channel and 4channel are completely different bits of hardware. It's not an option you can just re-wire like FoC on Obsidian.
