My Saber came with the Xtar 14500 800mAh batteries. Would 18650s be better? Last longer?
Thanks

Different size.

Selfish passion is unquenching.
What strength have you when you are a slave to your passions?
What power without strength of character?
To self centered rage, you will be chained.
The dark side is no victory.
The long path to peace is through balanced emotions.
The first step to gaining knowledge is recognizing your own ignorance.
Serenity is patient, not passionate satisfaction.
Find harmony by understanding chaos.
Become one with the force, which will never die.

They're also likely a different amperage, which could cause problems

Ah, thanks. They looked to be the same size in the listing I saw.

Whenever dealing with anything electrical, it's best to go with what's recommended. In this case, the 14500 batteries

It should be possible if you have the right knowledge, but know that making that change to the saber makes it so you can never send it in for repair if you run into problems.

I agree with Chalion, you don’t ever want to void warranty for electronics. It can get costly
