Title: Why is my blade changing colors? Post by: Timmy Tucker on January 05, 2011, 04:00:08 AM I got the Initiate V2 saber for Christmas with the Violet Amethyst blade. About two days after I got the saber, the blade started to change colors. When I turn it on, the blade changes from the original color to a hot pink and then to a deep red in a matter of seconds. I was wondering if anyone else is having this problem and what causes this to happen. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

Title: Re: Why is my blade changing colors? Post by: ThreadJack on January 05, 2011, 04:07:48 AM Yes you should definitely change those batteries. Between this forum and FXSabers.com I've seen about a hundred posts asking this, and it's almost always the batteries.

Post by: Timmy Tucker on January 05, 2011, 04:16:46 AM Thanks for the help guys, I changed the batteries but now the blade is almost a blue color and not so much purple..but that's probably just because I've been looking at a hot pink blade for the past couple days haha.
Title: Re: Why is my blade changing colors? Post by: ThreadJack on January 05, 2011, 04:20:47 AM That's the color it's supposed to be. The Violet Amethyst is tuned to lean a bit more towards blue than a strait purple.

Title: Re: Why is my blade changing colors? Post by: rezolution on January 05, 2011, 05:08:41 AM I HIGHLY recommend you get a nice charger and a few sets of batteries. I go through either 4 or 8 AAA batteries almost every day LoL.
If you have a need for AA and AAA batteries, here is a nice setup from Sanyo...for $30 you get 8AA, 4AAA, and the charger. They are the gen2 NiMh batteries so you can charge them up and even if they sit for a month or two, they are still fully charged... http://www.amazon.com/Sanyo-Eneloop-Charger-Rechargeable-Batteries/dp/B003VLAEPQ/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1294203792&sr=8-2 If you already have a NiMh charger, you can get an 8 pack of Sanyo AAA Eneloops for like $21 http://www.amazon.com/Sanyo-Eneloop-Pre-Charged-Rechargeable-Batteries/dp/B00368EKVS/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1294203792&sr=8-3 Sam's Club sells 24 AAA Alkalines for $10, but I go through that many batteries in about a week LoL. Rechargeables are the way to go... Title: Re: Why is my blade changing colors?
