Assembly

  1. Remove the plastic cap from the sword blade and then carefully slide it through the top into the handle until it meets the pins. The idea is that the sword blade pushes the pins in a little bit.
  2. Now screw the included flat Allen screws through the screw holes at the top of the handle with the Allen wrench to firmly clamp the sword blade in place. They do not need to be inserted! The other pointed and blunt screws are spare here you do not need to do anything with them.
  3. The Allen screws should be fixed straight into the handle and without resistance.

When reassembling, make sure that the Allen screws do not block the blade on the inside of the handle.

Charging

Charge the saber for at least two hours before use. Do not turn on the saber while it is charging. A 1A / 5V charger should be used for charging. If the saber has been completely empty charge for at least 4 hours.

Charging with cable: Plug the cable into the charging port. The light ring will flash slowly. When the saber is fully charged the light ring will extinguish or the saber will say "ready". On some legendary sabers the charging port is hidden away this is usually located at the bottom inside the saber.

Charging with separate battery charger: Unscrew the two parts of the saber (leave all screws in place) and remove the battery to insert it into the charger.

Turning on

When the saber is in standby (the button lights and the sword blade does not light) press the button on the handle once. If the button does not light the saber is off and the button must be pressed for about three seconds to turn the saber on.

Off

When the saber is on (sword blade is glowing): hold down the glowing button until the saber turns off (about three seconds), the saber now goes into standby mode. Hold the button longer to turn it off completely.

Volumes

Each KenJo Saber has different volumes and a silent/mute mode. Standard neopixel sabers have two different modes. Mute and sound on.

To change the volume the saber must be on standby. Hold the button down until the light flashes once, then release. There will now be a voice confirmation.

Repeat this process to change between volume and mute modes.

    Base lit models feature a bright 12 watt bulb in the handle. This shines into the sword and causes the lightsaber to light up.

    Neopixel and Proffie have a sword which is equipped with a double-sided LED strip along the entire length of the inside. This ensures that the light is much brighter than a base lit variant and also offers more lighting effect possibilities.

    All soundboard types come with preset sounds and colors. The proffie variant comes with a 16GB SD card. On various forums you can find many sound effects and light effects to upload.

    Below is an overview of the different soundboards offered by KenJo Sabers.

    For a more detailed explanation of the various functions, we recommend reading this page first,

    The operation of your saber varies by soundboard type and in some cases also minimally between certain models. On this page you can find the appropriate manual based on your saber or soundboard type. In many cases the explanation is extended with video for extra explanation and demonstration. https://kenjosabers.nl/pages/handleiding-kenjo-sabers

    Remove the black or clear cap from the flat side of the saber. Then carefully slide the blade/sword or plug into the handle until it meets the bulb. With a neopixel model, it is important that the pins are pushed down sufficiently. Make sure that the Allen screws do not block the blade on the inside of the handle. Then use the supplied Allen screws and Allen wrench to tighten the blade firmly into the handle. Also watch the instructional video on the troubleshoot page here

    You bet! All of our swords are made of durable polycarbonate developed for lightsaber versus lightsaber duels. Always use common sense and be careful. We recommend wearing protective clothing and making sure you have enough space so there is no damage to the environment or other people.

    Please note that RGB base lit lightsabers are best suited for dueling. Other soundboard type lightsabers have an LED strip in the sword which makes them heavier and more fragile. These models can also be dueled with, but we recommend soft to medium dueling to avoid damage.

    KenJo Sabers come standard with 12 different preset colors. The colors can be easily changed by using the button on the lightsaber. It is also possible to choose your own color by letting the lightsaber slowly change color. Exact instructions can be found in the manual which comes with each lightsaber. Some models have different colors of handles / hilts. On the product page you can see in which color a lightsaber is available. If the model you want is sold out, we do not have it in stock. Would you still like to buy it or do you have another wish? If so, please let us know. It is often possible to facilitate a saber specifically for you.
