Does anyone have experience with Salt Lake Saber Co? Their prices are attractive and the designs look nice, but I am dubious about their light system. Am I better off going with Ultra Sabers for a similar price with the downside of not being able to customize? My budget will not allow anything at the level of Vader's Vault unfortunately, so I need to stick with a smaller budget.

I have no experience with them, but the light system is used by some of Ultrasabers designs too. It should be fine, though it will likely not be as bright as dedicated LEDs would be.

I think, for the price point, I'd risk it. If you're not going for sound (and you couldn't at that price from US either), something that size would be better than the HUGE US designs.

There are some other builders out there that may be able to help you out depending on your budget. Check out the work of the Mining Colony members at FX-Sabers.com: https://www.fx-sabers.com/forum/index.php?board=55.0
