1. Introduction

This content is for those who are planning to use custom lightsabers.
This includes an explanation of the accessories, how to connect the blade, and how to charge the saber.

2. Product accessories

The contents of the accessories vary depending on the manufacturer and product.
For details on accessories, please refer to each product page.

Blade

The blade is made of polycarbonate material.
There are blades for Neopixels with LEDs inside and hollow blades for Infiltrated LEDs, and they come in two thicknesses: the standard 1 inch (2.54 cm wide) and the slightly thinner 7/8 inch (2.22 cm wide).

2.2. Blade plug

This is an accessory that is attached to the hilt when the blade is removed.
It serves the purpose of blocking the light coming out of the lightsaber's hilt, and is also useful for displaying the saber as a decorative item.

2.3. Blade fixing screw and fixing wrench

This is the screw used to secure the blade (blade plug) to the hilt.
Many models use hex-type screws which do not spoil the appearance of the hilt.

2.4. Acrylic display stand

A stand for storing and displaying custom lightsabers.
It is made of highly transparent acrylic material. The design of the included stand varies depending on the manufacturer and product.

2.5. Micro SD Card Reader

Included with LGT SABERS XenoPixel and XENO3 products.

You can access the microSD card by removing it from the saver and connecting it to a computer. This is used to change the saver settings.

2.6. Charging cable (or charger)

A charging cable (or charger) that matches the charging method of the saver is included.
For charging instructions, please refer to the Charging Instructions section.

2.7. String Case (89Sabers products only)

This is a storage bag for the saber that comes with the 89SABERS lightsaber.
It helps prevent scratches when carrying the device.

3. How to attach the blade

3.1. Installation method

There are screw holes for fixing the blade near the blade attachment port.

After attaching the blade, tighten the screw to secure the blade in place.
On some models, part of the hilt molding acts as a fixing screw.

*If the blade has a protective cap or wrapping, remove it before installing.

4. Charging method

A USB power supply is not included, so please use one you have on hand.

4.1. Removable battery method

This is the most popular charging method in which the battery is removed and charged.

It is compatible with Neopixel model lightsabers that consume a lot of battery, and can be used continuously by rotating with a spare battery. After charging, please pay attention to the polarity of the battery when attaching it to the saber.

4.2. Type-C method

This is a charging method that uses the USB Type-C connector standard used in smartphones, tablets, and computers. It is mainly implemented in LGT SABERS models.

For XenoPixel (XENO3) and built-in LED models, when you connect it to the port you will hear a voice say "Charging", and when charging is complete you will hear a voice say "Ready".

The Proffieboard model does not have a voice notification function, so the LED near the charging port will light up red or green.

A red light indicates charging and a green light indicates charging is complete.

4.3. Charge port method

This is a charging method that uses a 2.1mm (or 1.3mm) DC plug.

It is mainly used in models made by LGT SABERS that do not have removable batteries.
For XenoPixel (XENO3) and built-in LED models, when you connect it to the port you will hear a voice say "Charging", and when charging is complete you will hear a voice say "Ready".

4.4. Type-C method (LGT integrated chassis)

This is a charging method similar to the Type-C method, but this model has the charging port on the chassis side instead of the hilt side.

It is used in some high-end models made by LGT SABERS.

When charging, please set the kill switch to the ON side .
