Yea, XRGB is probably the best entry level bet. Pretty close sound-wise to proffie, and you can remap all of the controls now. It's pretty awesome that the baselits have everything the pixel stuff does except, obviously, for the pixel effects and all. And it is actually cool that the upper portion separates cause even just adding something as simple as a choke extension between those pieces can make it feel nicer to spin. Also that new saber, good lord that one is nice. Am resolving an issue with mine but once that's sorted that might end up being my favorite hilt. Plays very nicely with my speaker mod but also just feels really good. Hope they do well with that one cause I could definitely go for similar things. 👍
I've been a lightsaber collector for 20+ years, starting with prop copies and base lit "Stunt" hilts. I've seen the tech steadily improve and can't imagine what will be next. RGB diodes in hilt, string blades then neo pixel. Being able to just take a microSD card and be able to modify and/or change out fonts and effects really changed the market. Thank you and keep up the good work.
I got the LGT sea5, a nice hilt also. The great thing with this is the button does not stick up so cannot accidently urn it off it you grip with both hands
@@thefrugaljedi I am interested in the price point especially it's like $130 CDN including shipping. One thing I did notice when you were dueling with your padawan is that the upper top part of the blade was not as well lit than the part close to the emitter. I guess that's the fact of all RGB sabers. So are you recommending me to wait?
So many to choose from! You need to get a neopixel saber for tip drag. SABNEO and HL Saber both carry affordable Neopixel lightsabers. If you can wait till August, the new line of sabers that I've been working on with an incredible company will be released. The Neopixel versions will have tip drag and they'll function in a way you probably have never seen before 😉
My Sea 5 LGT saber, took the card out, added 5 sound fonts, now impossible to get the SD card back in as the holder itself came out, also and looks like its back in but its not as the bluthooth app confirmed I only had 16 fonts, not the 39 I should have. Also now my lightsaber wont even turn on, anc yes never took the battery out so battery is not put in the wrong way. Talking to the supplier here says the SD cards should never really be taken out as they can be fragile, so may have busted it
@@JakePlays634 my only complaint is the quality of the speaker. It could be better. After I review it, I'll be upgrading the speaker. I do love the hilt. Get h-pixel!
Had to watch this channel for a long time before finally seeing you "DO IT" - well worth the wait!
Love your reviews, keep up the good work, sir!
Exciting!
Looking forward to August. Thanks for inspiring me to try my hand at a first time video lightsaber review coming up. It arrives today - a Xenopixel.

You've been doing a fantastic job and hopefully will keep doing such.

I found that next hilt your padawan had. Interesting.
It's such a unique piece! Spinnable and perfect for 2 handed combat.

Thanks so much for your review. I am very excited and looking forward to seeing the sabers in August.
I can't wait till you get to see what's coming!
@@thefrugaljedi should I hold off on buying the Eleskoco XRGB v3 and wait?
@@albertlee7607 are you specifically looking for an RGB saber or something around that price point? If you're looking for RGB, XenoRGB is awesome.

Thanks for the video. I am new to this. Wondering if there is a good saber you can recommend with tip drag effect? Thanks.

@@thefrugaljedi thanks. I will wait. And cannot wait to see that! Thank you for everything you are doing to make fan’s dream come true! 🙏🏻
I can't wait for August now
Me too! These are going to be the most affordable RGB and pixel sabers you will ever find. "This is just the beginning...."

What saber is your padawan using? And do you have a review on it?
It's The Crusaber by HLSABER. I'll be reviewing it soon.
@@thefrugaljedi thanks look forward to it!
@@thefrugaljedi I would like to purchase one of the HLSABERs and the crusaber is the one I think I want. Would you suggest buying it?
@@JakePlays634 my only complaint is the quality of the speaker. It could be better. After I review it, I'll be upgrading the speaker. I do love the hilt. Get h-pixel!
So, this is a high recommendation?
Yup! And it's on sale for prime days. $119.99CDN with free shipping.
@thefrugaljedi I grabbed it during Prime Days. I couldn't pass it up at $78.83USD shipped.
@@JediJunkie247 wow that's a better price than Canada!
Does it have tip drag?
Tip drag only works with a neopixel saber and this is RGB so no, it can't do tip drag.
