Blue And The Green LiteSabers....

Whats the diffrence? Is the green more powerful? And is it for more advanced Jedi?

its probably just the users preference, thats all......

Mace Windu has a purple one so I dunno...

What are the sabres made of?

Jedi/padawan's don't go to the Council store to purchase them, do they? 🥷 If I remember correctly, this part of their training isn't it?
K, will read up on starwars.com

Whilst there have been plenty of attempts- for colour to denote Force Philosophy or seniority- it has proven impossible to say that sabre colour is down to anything other than preference.

Sabres are made of... well... hi-tech stuff. We know they have crystals that act as batteries (some people think the crystals are for focussing but thay seems doubtful).

Canonical stuff on it is non-existant; the ROTJ radio version has some semi-canon comment on it.

Where are these crystals mined? Do the bad guys all shop in the same place? 😖anta: 🍺

it's just a color and that's all, otherwise if one was better, everyone would take that color

Yeah what yerss said.

The crystal's some say acts as the color of the lightsaber.

Green makes a green saber, blue for blue, red for red, etc.

Mace Windu was supposedly given some purple crystals a long time back and he uses them for his lightsaber.

My thoughts...

The crystal is for focasing a light into a laser (like a real laser).
The technical part in the sabre handle is the bit that controls the blade length/intensity.
The colour of the blade comes from colour of the crystal which is down to the preference of the maker.
I seem to remember Gantoris made a multi-crystal sabre that could change colour.

Well, the best source we have (ROTJ radio) says that the crystal is used as a battery, not a focus, and so could have nothing to do with colour- the blade is instead focussed through a lens.

*waits for people to comment that Mace has a red and blue crystal in his sabre*

(it will come)

...

*Waiting*

Now what yerss?

well, give it some time 😄

Shall I say it?? 😛 😆

Sure

there are two crystals in lightsabers. there is a primary crystal, then a focusing crystal. in the rearmost part of the hilt is a diatium power cell.....it provides power to the primary crystal...then there is the focus crystal....

Well that makes sense! So I was nearly right!!!! 😄

Hey what about Mace having a red and blue crystal in his sabre?

How do you know this?

There are only EU sources that talk of a focussing crystal. The most canoncial source we have directly refers to a 'focal lens' (which is also described as having a concave surface).
