What is the difference between Standard (Base lit) and Eco Pixel (neopixel) lightsabers?

The main difference between base-lit (standard) and Neopixel lightsabers lies in their blade illumination technology:

Base-lit (standard) lightsabers: These sabers feature a single LED or LED string within the blade, providing a uniform glow. They typically offer fewer visual effects and color options compared to Neopixel sabers.

Eco Pixel (Neopixel) lightsabers: Neopixel sabers use advanced LED technology with individually addressable LEDs embedded in the blade. This allows for customizable colors, dynamic lighting effects, and realistic ignition and retraction sequences. Neopixel blades can display intricate patterns and animations, enhancing the visual experience.

In summary, Neopixel lightsabers offer more advanced and customizable lighting effects compared to base-lit (standard) sabers, providing a more immersive and visually stunning experience for enthusiasts and cosplayers.
