I was just watching a saber review when I heard that the last saber the guy had, had its LED burn out cause he used the wrong batteries. This freaked me out. And I was just wondering are there specific batteries to use and specific ones not to use. And what types of batteries are used by the community. FYI I do have a standard set up on my saber. And also this could be a good little feed for anyone else that has the same question to look at

Personally, on my stunt sabers, I've been using some rechargeable NiMH AAAs that I got from Radio Shack... no problems so far.

If you have a saber with the Obsidian setup (sound), you must use Li-Ions.

For Standard Setup I would also use rechargeable NiMH AAA batteries.

To add on to the ops question. Would it damage anything to use three 1.5v c-cells in a saber that started life with three AA cells? They will fit, just Don't know if it would change anything.
