I am leaving you guys tonight with this video. I have to get up early and start my new job training. I am out of breath in this vid due to some one on one training with the Chief Instructor (7th Dan) and I was really tired but I wanted to get this posted as I am super in love with it. It is processing but should be available shortly.

My Dominix v3 came this morning...I think. I'll get picture's up here in a bit, but I'm honestly not 100% positive if it's an Initiate or a Dominix. It's quite a bit longer than my Prophecy, so I think it's the Dominix. Definitely a v3 though! And, once more guessing, it's SDR. I'm going to compare it to my sister in law's AB this afternoon. My first thought was that it was AB, but it's definitely greener than I remember hers being. I'm very, very happy with it irregardless! I can couple it with my other v3, I'm a real sucker for chokes US does and this saber has two, and it's a completely new hilt and color for me! I have a Dark Libby, but it has Obsidian and FOC so it'd be hard to couple together with a second stunt saber.

If it's longer than your prophecy it's definitely not an initiate, those are like 9" long (as compared to the dominix at just over 1 foot) |

Certain color LEDs draw less power, and thus use different batteries. Also, Lith Ion set ups will provide more power more evenly for a longer time compared to standard batts, and the Buck Puck will increase that as well. It's mostly just cause of technical specs and jargin that the average joes like you and me don't get too involved with. lol

I figured that was the case, buy how do you guess BR or FO out of just two AAA batts? Are those the only two colors that use 2 AAAs?

I read somwhere that red requires less power than other colors , so if you get a saber with normal battery configuration and order a blazing red led then your sabers gonna run on two batteries instead of the normal 4 batteries required for alot of all the other colors. |

I THINK they are, but I'm not sure. I know all the RGB colors use 4, as do Green and Blue. I have a FO and a BR saber and both came with the 2 AAA setup, so that was the basis of my guess.  |

This is true. It's the same reason most laser gun sights are red. It draws less power. Green laser sights have been proven easier to see, but they draw more power because of the way the green beam has to be made. |

Thats a good comparison Oramac. I have a scope that has red and green illumination modes. The red illumination will last for hours and hours. The green illumination will drain the battery in probably an hour or less. |
