I need some help quick. I just bought a FX Lightsaber, the Green Luke Jedi one. It seems to me like there is something wrong with it and I only have 10 days to return it( and at 99 Bucks I'd like to know)! When I turn it on, it looks very sectioned. By this I mean its not a smooth light , more like a racoons tail, rings of ligth about half an inch wide all the way up the blade...its looks terrible to be honest. I have read all these posts how everyone is impressed with theirs ....and I am not...super disapointed =( Anyways is this normal? are my batteries half dead? Is this a known problem??? I was so stoked to get this bad boy home , and now this ....grrrr. I'll try to take a picture of it , but I doubt it will turn out. Any help on this would be super.

Thanks !!

I thought I would add some info... This model has 6 batteries not the 3 which I take it some of the newer ones have....I dunno maybe this one is an older one and therefore not as "brilliant" as the new ones ....still very disapointed.

    I'll leave this open to see if you get an answer, but in the meantime why not check out our ForceFX thread to see if anyone else posted the same problem.

    Sounds like blown LEDs to me. Take it back, fix it, or sell it.

    Try new batteries. when the batteries are low, they get all choppy looking.
