Li-Ion Battery Setup HIGHLY RECOMMENDED (Please Read Me)

[Chad mikolyski]

Hey just wondering does ultrasabers ever use a single 18650 cell lithium ion set up when a recharge port is used? What do the internals look like on a recharge port saber?

Thanks

Ultrasabers uses dual 14500s on their premium sound, Emerald and Diamond setups. (and a stunt if you pay an up charge) They never use 18650s. A single 18650 won't power their higher tier boards and two are just way too big for most hilts.

So I'm not sure what you mean by premium sound but I bought 5 Ultrasabers between 2015-2017 and I have changed them all over to single cell 18650 battery setups. They all have obsidian v2 and obsidian v3 with changeable sound fonts etc. however I know the fonts can't be changed  without plugging it in via USB which is was upgraded for the v4 to real time don't cycling correct?. Is it just the obsidian v4 that requires 7.4v?

No, all Obsidians (except Obsidian Lite), Emerald and Diamond require the 7.4v Li-Ion setup. Don't know how they can work with a single 18650, but 7.4 is definitely needed for flawless functionality of light and sound.
