Ignition & Flame Size Issues:

My Mini-Saber is having trouble igniting

Ensure the lock mechanism is switched off by sliding it to the right:

If you find there is a spark, but your Mini-Saber is not igniting, start by removing the included colour changer and try igniting. If this works, you can place the colour changer back on while ensuring it is adjusted so the color changer prongs are not close to the spark wire.

If the issue is still not resolved, the spark wire may have settled higher than it should be. You can try pushing the spark wire down (while your Mini-Saber is switched off and locked) until it is ~3mm (1/8") from the metal nozzle.

My flame looks shorter than it should be

• Temperature: Check if your Mini-Saber is cold. If you live in a cold climate, just received yours, and it hasn’t adjusted to room temperature yet, this might be the issue. Let it warm up to room temperature and try again.
• Recent Refill: When filling up the tank with butane, this can cause the tank to cool down temporarily, creating a smaller initial flame length, so ensure you wait a couple of minutes after filling up before you ignite it.
• Dial Setting: Make sure the flame adjusting dial is turned up to maximum length (turned all the way to the right) for full length.

There is a big orange flame!

This means the Mini-Saber has been overfilled. To fix this, simply use up all extra fuel in an open area until the orange flame becomes a smooth, blue flame.

What is the maximum flame length?

The standard flame size is 6 inches (15 cm), although this may vary due to a number of factors including ambient temperature, altitude, and oxygen density in the air, among others.

However, using colour changers will make the flame appear longer as the chemical reaction makes more of the flame visible.

Colour Changer Issues:

Why does my colour changer look used?

No need to worry if your colour changer looks a bit rusted or used. The chemicals used to coat the colour changer create this effect. You can be assured that yours has been placed on your Mini-Saber in a new condition for a vibrant colour effect.

Making the flame changer look its best

To make sure the flame gets an even and consistent color, you can use a small flat head screw driver to gently bend the prongs of the color changer up for the best color changing flame position!

Fuel & Safety:

Which butane should I use?

Requirements for fueling include any blend of fuel that is mostly butane that comes in a bottle with a plastic 3mm nozzle.

100% butane is recommended as we have seen little to no improvement by using other fuels that contain propane, isobutane, etc.

WARNING: Under no circumstance should you use a blend of fuel that contains mostly or 100% propane as it is extremely dangerous.

We recommend:

• USA: Bernzomatic 5.6 oz cylinder
• Canada: Bernzomatic 5.6 oz cylinder or Emzone Ultra Premium Butane

Is it food safe?

You can use the Mini-Saber to lightly toast snacks, cook marshmallows, or make fancy cocktails.

WARNING: We do not recommend using the colour changers while using the Mini-Saber to cook with since the chemicals on the colour changers are not food safe.
