TOPIC: Comprehensive FAQ... and more! (PLEASE READ FIRST)

Comprehensive FAQ... and more! (PLEASE READ FIRST) 5 days 4 hours ago #29253

Does anyone know if the 12W+ LEDs and the quick connects are compatible? It looks like I've seen one or the other, but not both mentioned on a particular saber. I'd love to pull the trigger on another new hilt with the champion electronics where I could swap between 2 different specific color options, and while I know I could also do this with the Hero tier at 3-6W, I'd strongly prefer the brighter 12+ LEDs, even if it's a bit more work to change between colors.

Also, I have received a SF gift certificate for the holidays, and hoping to utilize that for this purchase. The instructions received with it were non-existent, and the only thing I've been able to find on the forums on how to redeem this claim that you just pay for the saber normally, then email a picture of the gift certificate to the company and they'll issue a refund for that portion of the purchase. I have no idea if that's the official policy, or just something that a forum member claimed... also not sure if I can use the gift certificate on etsy site, or just the main site. Seems like there could be more clarity on the specifics of this process, as there is no official directions, instructions, etc... provided with the gift certificate, in the forum FAQs, or on the website.

Thanks in advance if anyone can provide some clarity on either of these topics.

Only on the mobile version, PC version is fine

I thought it was just on mobile at first but yesterday it also happened on my laptop, prompting my post. So far the only solution I know of is Brax's XD

That's what I was asked to do and I was refunded the cost of the gift certificate. It is an... odd way of doing it for sure. You do it this way for both the website and etsy. If you want it straight from the source you'll want to contact the respective customer services (website/etsy).

If the LED unit is outfitted w/QCs it doesn't matter what watt they are. So if the 12w+ LED unit has the QC upgrade then it will be swappable.

I think the problem is with the redirect in the URL, where clicking on "Recent Topics" will bring you to the last page you were on, etc. My best solution (convenient on PC) is to bookmark https://saberforgeforum.com/forum/recent?start=00 in the browser rather than https://saberforgeforum.com/forum/recent. On mobile it may just be quicker to just change the URL (page 2 would end in "/recent?start=20," so just change 20 to 00).

Quick connects are small plugs attached to the end of the LED wires, that way the component can be swapped without breaking out a soldering iron.

Thanks. I thought I looked through the thread and didn't see it. Might have missed it though, this thread has a TON of posts in it.

Deleting my browser history/cookies tends to fix this for me, but this workaround is much quicker!
