GETTING TO KNOW YOUR SABER

Throughout this user guide, we will be referring to various parts of the saber when explaining its features and care recommendations. It is important to know the names of these parts to avoid confusion. The illustration below shows an Aeryn however as all Sabertrio sabers are designed and built generally in the same way, the parts and its layout would largely be similar between models.

THE SABER’S BLADE

Sabertrio has two types of blades; Stunt & Neo. The blade type that you will receive is depending on your saber's blade illumination style. Sabers with in-hilt LEDs uses Stunt Blades where else Neo sabers, as the name suggests, uses Neo Blades which have hundreds of LEDs housed within the blade itself.

Installing a Stunt Blade

  • The Stunt Blade is meant to be paired with any Sabertrio saber that uses the in-hilt LED blade illumination style. It will NOT work with a Neo Saber.
  • Remove the dust cap from the blade. Be careful not to point the blade’s opening downwards as the diffusion film inside may be loose and slide out.
  • The reason for the diffusion film not being glued inside of the blade is to allow it some flex during dueling. This would reduce crinkles from forming on it through impacts. If the diffusion film is loose, you will need to gently unroll it inside of the blade to secure it in place.
  • Fully insert the blade into the saber’s emitter.
  • Tighten the blade retention screw with the provided hex key. DO NOT over tighten as it may damage the blade or screw threads on the saber.
  • The best practice is to tighten the screw gradually and test how secure the blade is by twisting it. If the blade does not rotate in the saber when twisted, it means that it is already secured enough.

Installing a Neo Blade

  • The Neo Blade is meant to be paired with any Sabertrio Neo Saber. It will NOT work on sabers that uses the in-hilt LED blade illumination style.
  • Insert the blade into the Neo Saber’s emitter. As the contact pins inside are spring loaded, push the blade in fully and HOLD it down.
  • Tighten the blade retention screw with the provided hex key. DO NOT over tighten the screw as it may damage the blade or screw threads on the saber.
  • The best practice is to tighten the screw gradually and test how secure the blade is by twisting it. If the blade does not rotate in the saber when twisted, it means that it is already secured enough.

BASIC GUIDELINES

Safety

  • All Sabertrio sabers that uses the in-hilt LED blade illumination style, features Cree XP-E2 LEDs; an extremely bright LED that is categorized as a CLASS 2 laser.
  • Never under any circumstances should anyone directly look at the LED when it is illuminated.
  • If you intend to use the saber frequently without its blade, we recommend purchasing a blade plug. When inserted into the emitter of the saber, the blade plug will prevent a direct shine from the LED.
  • Neo Sabers uses dual addressable LED Strips which are inside the Neo Blade. It does not use Cree XP-E2 LEDs and therefore does not have this safety risk.
  • Always wear necessary protection gear and practice restraint when dueling. Landing a hard hit on an unprotected individual may cause serious injuries.

Battery

  • All Sabertrio sabers contain sensitive electronics that are powered by a single rechargeable 18650 lithium-ion battery.
  • When charging the saber, ONLY use the provided charger. Using an incorrect model may damage the electronics.
  • Never under any circumstances should the battery be inserted in the reverse direction. Triple-check the polarities BEFORE inserting the battery!
  • Damage caused by reverse polarity is NOT covered by the Sabertrio warranty.
