    I've actually had a real world argument for neopixels for dueling. I had my trainer drop his baselit and kill the one blue tri-cree LED. So now his colors are limited. With a baselit, you only have 3 LEDs and each one is necessary to create all colors. A neo pixel has 80-100 LEDs on average. Sure, you can break one or a few, but the majority of your blade is still illuminated. I have yet to break a neopixel blade with weekly sparring with my trainer.

      but the way neopixels work kind of defeat that theory, since breaking just one LED in the chain will kil all LED's after it. So if you break the first LED, and only that one - no lights at all.

      @@TheMorfeus2 No, damaging one LED in the chain will not kill all the other LED's as those LED's aren't necessarily "damaged" cause they're well protected, it's just a solder point that actually takes the hit cause of physics

      @@PCPDJar Well, yeah, it won't break them, but they won't work. Since neopixels are 'daisy-chained' together - I.e. the second one connects to the first one, third to the second, and so forth, breaking the connection at any point will 'kill' the rest of the chain - as in make it not light up at all.

    Main take away from this im getting is. Go baselit if you intend to duel pretty consistently (im thinking daily type deal), or have a budget. But you can absolutely put the money in for Neo if you dont intend to duel consistently (holidays or maybe even weekly.) And want that extra flair.

    Ive said it for years even tho I just got my first neopixel lightsaber, these aren't the master replicas ones that get dark spots in the blades if you look at them wrong... the materials alone that make a neopixel blade are infinitely more durable!
    That direct plug in method is what I want to do with my luke v2 build in doing, blade depth has been an issue since day one for thin necks I don't know why they don't just eliminate the pins and go with a direct plug in to the bottom of the blade!

    • @YorelNurad
      @YorelNurad 5 месяцев назад +3

      Seriously though, Heads up for those looking to get into lightsabers. Neo pixel blades are very strong and actually designed for dueling hence thick foam padding inside for the LEDs. However I would agree with your recommendation. From over a decade of experience with lightsabers, I have observed that the base lit blades are better for striking because they have no LEDs in the actual blade to go out and then make the saber look ugly and ruin the effect. Less chance of the effect being ruined in the base as the LEDs take less vibration and impact in the hilt. STAR WARS FAN FOR LIFE!!! This is the way and may the force be with you all!

    • @Haylion
      @Haylion  5 месяцев назад +4

      Did you watch the whole video? (No worries if you didn’t) When I took the pixel blade apart, I said this is what we don’t want to break. Also, if I recommend people to duel with their pixel blades and they break their lightsabers, they will blame me.

    interesting video, I was indeed curious as to the durability! I just ordered my first lightsabers and I went all baselit because I was reading & seeing that it was safer/more durable for dueling, but I was also seeing that at least some of the good neopixels these days are supposed to be fairly resistant too, at least for some light dueling. So indeed, seems they can take quite a beating as well!

    If this is typical of all Neopixel LS from NSabers then I’m fairly confident they won’t(easily) break. Especially if the duelling partners choreograph it beforehand, which is a pretty good idea anyway.
