Todd Johnson, better known as “Darth Alice” online, is a Waterford, Michigan-based metal artist that specializes in making extremely bright lightsaber replicas, starting with this Redeemer LED Lightsaber from Saberforge.

This is a newer Saberforge Redeemer that I did a few mods to including a full precision fit Delrin chassis, custom speaker holder, and full Igniter R5 and Z6, 18 watt main LED both from Naigon’s Electronic corporation.
The battery is an 18650 AW with a 5.8 Amp max draw rate to match the main LED’s power consumption.
