We're going to cover 11 LIGHTSABER COMPANIES that YOU TALKED ABOUT THE MOST in the comments section of last year's version of this video.
If you’re thinking about buying a new or custom lightsaber and you’re not sure who to buy from, make sure to WATCH THIS VIDEO FIRST, because there are some VERY IMPORTANT THINGS things you need to know, and some very bad companies you need to STAY AWAY from!

------------------ DATA ANALYTICS PROCESS ------------------
Here's what I did to arrive at the conclusions made in this video...
1. Used KZfaq's API to export all comments from last year's video into Excel
2. Used Excel to clean up the data as much as possible. Here's what that involved:
- a. Separated the comments that mentioned lightsaber companies from those that didn't. This brought the total comments from 2650 to about 1800.
- b. Separated the useful comments from the non-useful comments (e.g., "What about Sabertrio?" is NON-USEFUL, and "Sabertrio is great" is USEFUL). This brought the comments down to about 1400.
- c. Then I used formulas and keywords and some manual corrections to identify which companies were mentioned in each comment. Some only mentioned 1 company. Others mentioned several.
- d. Then I took a tally of how often each company was mentioned and used those sums to determine which companies accounted for 80% of all the comments that were left. This brought the total comments down to about 1100 and revealed the TOP 11 COMPANIES THAT WERE MENTIONED THE MOST OFTEN.
3. Imported that Excel data into an app called "Zoho Creator", which is basically a software-building platform with a lot of built-in tools for creating forms, reports, and dashboards for displaying analytics (I use this for work every day and have become very comfortable with it).
4. Built an app to manage all the data I've compiled. The app allows me to view each comment, read it, rate it, and save it. I also built a dashboard for displaying high-level sentiment analysis cards to see how all the companies stack up against each other, and how each company performs on specific attributes relating to the Product, Service, Shopping Experience, and Shipping.
5. I read through each of the 1100 comments and for each one, I filled out a sort of "order satisfaction" survey for whatever companies were mentioned in the comment, using the contents of the comment as a guide. The great thing about building an app was that I could go through all these comments from my phone. So whenever I had free time, I would open the app and get to work. Still... this took weeks.
6. As I was doing this, I noticed that everyone's reasons for why they liked/disliked a company fall under about a dozen different categories such as Hilt Quality, Customer Service, and Shipping Time. So I added these categories to the survey form and (to the best of my ability) filled out a 16-question survey for about 800 comments. The only comments that I DIDN'T get to were from Ultrasabers and Saberforge. Ultrasabers alone had 358 total comments, and I read 200 of them (randomized). After that, I figured that was plenty of data to work with for a single company, so I moved on to the rest. I did the same thing for Saberforge.
7. The dashboard I created then automatically took all the ratings from those 800 comments and created all of the bar graphs shown in this video.
8. Then I used my own judgement in deciding which results were worth reporting/mentioning to you. In a nutshell, if a specific attribute had less than 10 total votes, I wouldn't think it to be reliable enough to form conclusions with. UNLESS....
- All of those votes were GOOD, or all of them were BAD. IMO, those are clear trends and should be reported.
- The company itself had so few votes in general, that any amount of votes would provide at least SOME insight about the company. The only exception to this was Disney's legacy sabers, which had so few votes that literally nothing was reliable enough to share.
9. Then I spent 20 hours making a video about it :D

I bought my 3rd saber from Sabertrio this week and out of all my experience, Sabertrio is absolutely top tier. They’re always prompt with communication, repair and any manner of questions that you could have regarding their company, sabers, accessories, etc. Their sabers are high end and the designs are unique yet subtly pay homage to other sabers. I’d recommend them to absolutely anyone who is in the market for a saber.

The Pach Store is really underrated; I've ordered my (so far first) saber from them and the price with shipping was very reasonable and it is pretty durable. I do want to mention that their flashlight-style blades are pretty bright, but the sound has a noticeable delay on the less expensive model ($70 usd). I'd say you get what you pay for, but the overall quality is pretty great for a first-ever saber. Wouldn't have even heard about them if it weren't for your last video! Keep it up m8!

I just got the SS saber from Pachstore. Beautiful saber. I also got the third sister blade from Ultrasabers. The Ultrasabers blade needed more tweaking to feel solid. Also the fact that there's no neopixel option is a major bummer. And it costs more. In Ultrasabers defense, they do have higher discount sales. The hardware with the ultrasabers blade is aiight, but it's got nothing on the asteria . I got tired of scraping the internet for cool presets on the Ultrasaber, as the setup itself just feels outdated for the cost. Outside of a sale, I don't think I'd ever do ultrasabers again. The sabers aren't BAD, they just feel outdated compared to the Pachstore SS saber.

I have two sabers, one double-bladed and one single from Crimson Dawn. For the price they have great features and the blades are very durable. I've also met their production team (we both worked at the same Ren fest) and they were absolutely fantastic to talk to and very knowledgeable about their products. I would definitely recommend them to anyone!

I agree with Crimson Dawn mainly being that all my lightsabers that I have personally purchased are from them. They have great prices and for really good electronics. They keep on improving and growing, I can't wait to see where this company is in a year. Hopefully with more options. Also with Vaders Vault I love their quality but with their price is a little steep. Also I work 2 minutes away from them.

Awesome video, super helpful! Can't even imagine how long this took to make. I only have experience with Electrum Sabercrafts (and Ultrabers, kind of, but we don't talk about that...) and I've been very happy with them, can definitely recommend. It's true that the app wasn't very stable but they've recently launched a new firmware and app which has so far worked great. And something worth mentioning is that when it comes to variety, the hilts have a lot of customisation options which make the sabers feel much more personalised.

@amihey Жыл бұрын

I have a Kyberlight Lightsaber, and I have some mixed things to say about it. I really love the customization options, and their customer service and shipping times are some of the best on the market. I believe the value to be the best on the market overall, with 17 colors and 6 sound fonts. I believe that Kyberlight has come closer to perfection than any other lightsaber company. However, it is the quality of the saber that is to be spoken off. The actual blades are extremely durable, and they can withstand heavy dueling. But the electronics are a different story. There is no kind of internal chassis holding the electronics and place, so if you drop your saber on the ground or swing it too hard while dueling, the electronics can move and delicate wires can snap or become unplugged. I have broken 3 Kyberlights in the last 10 MONTHS due to this issue.

Great video. I bought a value pack from rebel sabers, 3 sabers for less than 300. The quality of the sabers themselves were awesome, basic design on the hilts, but they felt great to wield. You can also combine them to create a staff, and the electronics have all the features you would want; change colors, different sound fonts, flash on clash, smooth swing. Fantastic value, great if you're just starting lightsaber collection. The electronics on one of my sabers was buggy, but they have great customer service. Sent it in and got a new core shipped within 4 weeks, with an extra battery.

@henryeowens 2 жыл бұрын

I repaired an Ultrasabers for a friend recently. The electronic design of their stunt sabers (no sound) is wrong. Those sabers only have 4 functional components: LED, switch, driver (could have used a resistor), battery. They had it powered with 2AA batteries (3V), which is the minimum voltage to light the LEDs. The problem is, the driver they used stabilizes current to the LED, but significantly reduces voltage. Occasional use for less than one year had caused the driver to fail from under-voltage. I had to replace the driver, and add a 3AA (4.5V) battery setup. It works fine now. The LED still isn’t as bright as my TCSS sabers, and the hilt feels big and clunky. Their leather wrap was also hurriedly done, and is very uneven. Regarding Korbanth Sabers, they don’t sell nearly as many complete sabers as they do DIY kits. That is where the company really shines. Their replica/DIY kits are sold by several other saber companies, either complete or empty. I also recommend looking into KR Sabers (The Saber Armory). Thanks for putting this together. Great work. 👍

If you have an issue with your lightsaber, neopixel blade, if something breaks you just inform the customer service and they get back to you within 24 hours on how to fix your lightsaber or give you information about the operation or send you replacement parts to fix your lightsaber or you can ship it to them and they'll help you with your issue at no additional cost. Also if you live in the United States, FREE SHIPPING!!

Plus, you can switch between a stable, pulse, and unstable blade. That's all in the most basic saber. I am planning on getting one of their xenopixel sabers because it's like a budget proffie, you can easily add new sound fonts and it uses the neopixel blade for about $245 at the low end. Also, the blade durability is great, the battery pack is secured incredibly and heavy dueling is fine.

The only Lightsabers I've bought have been one from Ultrasabers, before I knew how bad they were. The hilt constantly rattles, and while the blade is sturdy itself, the tip flew off. Also the diffusion of light could be better. Second is Kyberlight. Their saber is insanely good with immersive smooth swing, flash on clash, lockup, blaster effects, and 3 fonts. Plus you can change the color and volume to your liking. The blades are extremely durable with a threaded pointed or rounded tip. The hilt is also pretty lightweight and good for some fancier dueling or just spinning around. They also have a bunch of fairly simple emitters, pommels, and sleeves to customize your saber. Fantastic in my opinion.

The features are so nice for the price, too. They have I think 7 or 8 sound fonts, plus you can add your own. They have smooth swing, flash on clash, customizable colors, and you can switch it out for a day blade. They also sell sleeve pieces, guards, and end caps for the hilt for super cheap, so you can mix and match your accessories

Padawan Outpost and Crimson Dawn are LGT resellers, their products are identical because they come from the same OEM. So if you're finding that Padawan Outpost has cheaper shipping for your location there's no point in buying from Crimson Dawn unless Padawan Outpost is out of stock on a particular hilt you're looking for.

Vouching for Electrum! I have bought over 14 sabers from that company, and every single one was hit right on the dot. Great durability, perfect presicion, and they're Not as expensive as some of the other saber companies I've bought from (VV, KB, DIS, etc.) And, they're all smooth sound, so don't worry about that. 100000/10, would definitely recommend.

I ordered one from Electrum and the electronics were a wreck. I cut myself on one of the edges near the emitter. My responses from customer service were along the lines of "That issue will probably be fixed with a future update. That's weird, it shouldn't be sharp." but no mention of replacing my saber. Kyberlight has great customer service and I'll be trying Sabertrio next time.

I bought two kyberlight sabers a week ago and so far they're amazing, and I haven''t even needed to charge it yet. The only issue is that one of the two I got (got a great discount) is a little oversensitive with the clashing. I got a great discount too because of the black friday sale! I got a free knight pack(250 USD value) for buying a master pack(350 value). But here's the kicker! I also got 20% off site wide because of black friday, AND I got a 64 USD discount because of Honey! I also got free shipping for being a first time buyer. They gave me the option for "first in line" meaning they send me my items right away for just 5 USD. All in all I got my lightsabers in one week (and keep in mind, I live in NORWAY) for very cheap. Kyberlight is great, in my opinion.

I got a Graflex from Saberforge with champion tier electronics roughly four years ago. It was made from their adaptive saber parts because that was the only way to get one without a crystal reveal chamber. It said it would take ten weeks to ship out to me, so I eagerly waited. When the time came, all of the parts for my saber were out of stock, so I had to wait a couple extra weeks after for it to actually arrive. When it arrived I assembled it with my Dad. The hilt was absolutely beautiful! It was very hard to fit all of the electronics in the hilt, even with the plug and play version. In the end it worked great! I loved how bright the saber was and it sounded fantastic, but there was one problem. Because of the rumble motor the electronics kept fumbling around within the hilt so I was always afraid I was going to break something by swinging it around. So in order to resolve this, my Dad filled all of the empty space in the saber with flat bubble wrap to prevent the electronics from moving. To nobody's surprise it worked. I used it regularly and showed it to my friends and we all had fun with it for nearly a week. Suddenly one time when I was using it, I started to smell smoke coming from the hilt. After opening up the saber I saw that the soundboard had a dark streak of burn damage across it, so it couldn't turn on anymore. I sent it back to Saberforge a couple of days later and got a full refund, with the exception of shipping of course. Years later I'm still not sure if the electronics just failed, or if it was the bubble wrap that caused them to burn. Moral of the story, don't mess with electronics unless you are 100% aware of what you're doing. I wouldn't recommend Saberforge to new saber buyer's, especially the adaptive saber parts. Despite the hilts being very high quality, the electronics just aren't comparable to other companies nowadays. I'm about to purchase another saber, probably from either Crimson Dawn or Korbanth, and I'm certain that my experience with this next saber is going to be much better, because Saberforge didn't set the bar as high as I had hoped.

I have to say, I've bought a total of four lightsabers from Ultrasabers (all prior to discovering this channel and learning about the much better options out there), and I honestly have no complaints about my buying experiences. Customer service was also really good when I had an issue with one of my sabers (which I was ultimately able to fix myself). Agree though about the quality of the product though - their Obsidian hearts are very basic in what they can do. And I didn't try the Emerald or Diamond electronics as they pushed the price way too high for me. I have found them pretty good for duelling too. But since discovering that there are much better products out there, I've bought two fantastic sabers from the Pach Store, plus a really good replica hilt from Roman Props, and I'm waiting on a combat saber from VV.

I've always had great experiences with Saberforge. I've bought from them and didn't have issues with shipping, communication was always positive, but my biggest draw to them is the customization. They have the most variety, really high quality that's way more affordable than other saber stores, and you can build a fully custom saber. When their virtual saber builder is operational, it's probably the best feature of any saber merchant. Stock can be iffy, but they're so screen accurate, durable, and with everything else I mentioned, I can look past that.

I ordered my very first light saber from saber forge. After multiple videos of research, customer reviews, and many nights sleeping on it. I can officially saw that I own a custom Hero Pixel combat saber from Saber forge. Their website makes ordering and customizing your saber easy and straight forward. The sound fonts, blade effects, colors, and feel is absolutely amazing! The build quality is out of this world. Though it did take about 15 weeks for me to get it, i understand with covid and everything, it makes sense. And with every hilt being custom made and machined to perfection does make sense with long production times. I live 2 states away and took only 3 days shipping. I haven't gotten around to dueling with my blade but after some mild testing the durability is honestly out of this world. I'm a lot more comfortable with dueling. All in all 9.5/10 from me with the only con is production time if you want one fast. If not then the production time could be a pro.

I want to take this opportunity to share with you all my own experience buying a 600$ saber from Ultrasaber. I want people to keep in mind that I have a couple of years worth of professional metal working experience, so I have a pretty accurate knowledge of metals and what quality metal working is. -2 months delay -Out of the box, the metal finish is really dull, you can see machining lines on some of the pieces and one has a side with a rough finish -cut myself deep on a round edge that hadn't been deburred proprerly. I had to file the edge myself -Motion sensors are inconsistent most of the the time and too sensitive when they shouldn't be -button is extremelly cheap and upon disassembling it, I noticed that the hole they had cut for it hadn't been deburred and was obviously drilled using the wrong feed RPM. -Threads on the pommel were damaged and had been cross threaded so I had to rethread the pommel myself. -Not very bright -Hole in which you seat the blade was a couple thousandth of an inch too wide, just enough for the blade to not settle in proprerly and janking side to side because of a small loose gap between the blade and the seat's walls. Not even generous tightening of the set screw was enough to hold it firmly in place. Had to drill a small hole at the base of the blade that aligns with the set screw's hole and I purchased a slightly longer set screw with same diameter and thread just so I would have peace of mind when messing around with it. I would have never trusted this sword in a FXsaber live duel. -Battery failure after only a few weeks of use. -ABSOLUTELY CRIMINAL OFFENSE LEVELS OF ATROCIOUS CUSTOMER SERVICE. had to harrass them with emails for 8 MONTHS before I even got any form of feedback which was just "'Sorry our Email processing system died and that's why we were silent for so long.", then sending them emails for another 4 months until I finally got feedback which was just that despite such failure covered by waranty, they kept claiming that since it's a BATTERY issue and not a SABER issue causing the batteries to fail, I had to buy my own and that keeping them in the saber when not in use tends to kill them. A very important detail they do not give you (or used to) on their website's section about saber maintenance and usage. I will never do business with them again. I had thought of this purchase for several years before I did it and kept finding all kinds of reasons why it wasn't a necessary purchase and not worth it and despite being a huge Star Wars fan, I own nothing Star Wars related, so I felt like this purchase was my ultimate fan devotion to something that I've loved my whole life. Imagine my dissapointment given how much I spent on it and how much I had heard good things about this company. I might consider purchasing another, actually good quality one eventually. They got a lot more options since then and they honestly seem way more fun to sink cash into than the crummy 3 options that I got for 600$

For almost six years I've been a customer of Ultrasabers. During that time, I've purchased over half a dozen saber hilts, all of them with the Obsidian Lite soundboard. With the lone exception of one order (which was during the worst of the COVID lockdown), I've received every saber within a week. Each and every lightsaber was bright, loud, and worked perfectly. Admittedly, I no longer participate in heavy dueling but I've never had a problem with the blade or hilt. As for customer service, for the several times that I've had a concern or modified an order, I received a prompt response without any hassles. I've never purchased from any of the other companies; I've never had to since every experience with Ultrasabers has been positive for me. Granted, I've never requested a refund and the two times I made an adjustment post-order, my sabers were shipped to me between 1-2 weeks. Nevertheless, I can say without exception that I've been happy with every purchase that I've made from Ultrasabers. I appreciate videos like this as it gives a good gradient for the various lightsaber companies available for one of my favorite hobbies. Hopefully next years list will show more experiences similar to my own because Ultrasabers has always been good to me.
