Love the saber, high quality, shipped quickly, arrived within the week. Can't really describe how it feels to hold this maul lightsaber after coming from the toy sabers from 2 decades ago. Absolutely get your money's worth.
The saber is great, everything about is great. Only thing the new proffie 3.9 doesn't come with alot of preset sounds front so I will learn to upload them.
Thanx for a great saber
I updated my Maul lightsaber from an old Xenopixel to this proffie and I couldn't be happier! This hilt itself is beautiful! The soundboard and speaker sound great! Plenty of fonts to choose from with the ability to add more! Not a bad price considering you get two hits in one, two soundboards for each hilt and two blades. Not to mention the display stand has come a long way and makes the hilt look great for display purposes! Highly recommended!
4 stars for the hilt:
- Sometimes, it's a little tough to align the coupler holes with the thumbscrews.
- The covertec button is a basic surface-mount version. For less than $3, better versions are available from TCSS that match the contour of the hilt.
3 stars for the installation:
- It uses parallel wiring on 2 Data circuits, which restricts the limitless individual LED control Proffieboard can deliver. Greater flexibility would be achieved by installing series LED wiring and by using more/all of the Data pins.
- I found both cores struggled with complex blade styles. When inspecting the wiring, I found LED groups on different data leads shared MOSFETs I added "#define SHARED POWER PINS" to the config and that seemed to fix it.
- Though it's a Maul staff, it does not include a Maul font.
- Proffieboard and the chassis can accommodate wiring for Blade Detect, but it appears the blade connector cannot.
As my all-time favorite lightsaber, I wanted an accurate high-quality replica of Darth Maul's lightsaber staff. I cannot imagine it gets much better than this, and the Proffieboard is amazing!
