Title: Prophecy V3 review
Post by: kitkenobi1994 on February 25, 2012, 07:34:10 PM
Hey everyone just got my Prophecy in today and this has got to be one of the most balanced sabers I have ever used! ;D The Arctic blue is quite the color, but it seems like more Sunriders Destiny than Arctic blue, I'm charging the batteries to see if that fixes that. My camera is dead but when that charges I will post pictures. Also it seems that the LED module is quite loose, I can hear it bouncing around in the saber, is that normal?

To answer the question about the loose LED inside, yeah, my bellicose also does that, its no issue, wont harm anything, just makes that clanking noiseXp It probably does that just so it doesnt get stuck if you have quick disconnect or something

The blade will secure the led when fully inserted and secured. It's the same way with all Ultra Sabers.

It seems FedEx damaged my blade to some extent, while I'm using it, it sounds like the blade is cracking. :( Its in one piece and its slightly bent, and the box was crushed when I got it. Hilt seems to be fine. Darn FedEx

If it's a mid grade, they all make that sound when you swing it around and stop. It's just how they're made.

Its an Ultraedge mid-grade but there is a crack running down the whole length of a the inside of the blade, I just saw it today when I took off the blade to inspect it. I'll try to get a picture but it's hard to get the camera to focus

(http://i1073.photobucket.com/albums/w382/onthewing194/DSC08387.jpg) there is, if you look you can see the hairline crack that runs the length of the blade. I tried to center it as best as possible

It is nice, unfortunately the LED Module failed after one light duel last night. The reflector came out and the LED stopped working, so I now have to wait for a response to my email. :(

awh!:( thats saddening, but it will make it all the better when its up and running again! do you have quick disconnect with it?


Title: Re: Prophecy V3 review
Post by: kitkenobi1994 on March 07, 2012, 01:29:13 AM
Nope no quick disconnect on it, unfortunately the Prophecy doesn't have that option. It's sitting in the box ready to be shipped out tomorrow for repairs. :( Feels like I'm missing a limb haha

Will be taking some heads off with the Heavy Grade blade I just received  ;D I really have to watch I don't break anything with this haha

Nice saber. Looks good in Arctic Blue. So you got a Heavy Grade blade too. Is it Ultra Edge or standard Heavy Grade? (The silvery finished one). Hope you get your saber fixed though.


Title: Re: Prophecy V3 review
Post by: kitkenobi1994 on March 08, 2012, 02:43:25 AM
Thanks Zren, me too, shipped it out today. Its the Heavy grade standard, didn't realize the heft to these blades until I got a chance to hold one, it should hold up quite nicely.

I ordered an Ultra Edge Heavy Grade blade with my Grab Bag orders which comes in next Friday on the 16th! :D Then I ordered an extra one for my wife's saber which is the Liberator. (As in my sig pic). Decided to let her have that. Hope you get your saber fixed. I will start a curved emitter saber thread when my Grab Bags get in if one came with the package.

I can honestly say I hope the best for your grab bags. When I sell off some of my junk I'll be getting 2 of them. I wait with baited breath till my stuff sells. Haha

Been trawling the forums in anticipation of my order arriving - you get extra points for scaring the crap out of the FedEx guy - I suspect I will have a similar reaction in next couple weeks! :D

Sorry to hear about your initial woes, hopefully all is well now.
