Ok my Force Fx Master Replica Luke IV Lightsaber is 7 days old now. I have been having fun but now lately its going on the fritz. Its going on off on off on instantly. It will freeze up with a ringing noise even though it is turned off. This is like Brand New. Can Anyone help me? And it well also light up part of the blade but not the whole thing. This was yesterday but now its a little better. It still goes on and off still and freezes is there anyway to fix this please.  Snot |

If you have not tried already, put new batteries in it.
Even if you have brand new ones in now, put a new pair in. I had the same problem with an Anakin ROTS, the batteries were just a few days old, but i put a new pair in and all was better.

Sidious is right generally a flickering means a lack of battery strength. Sometimes certain ones just don't work so try a fresh pair, maybe a different brand even. Personally i'd suggest the E2 lithiums from energizer...always do a great job for my sabers

Same happened with my Maul's, i could set it on a table and it would turn its self on and off, like a machine gun. (Once It turned itself on in the middle of the night, talk about your crazy alarm clocks!)
Also, the battery pack, you will notice little small holes on one side, make sure that there is no obstruction in those, (pocket lint for example).
Hope it works out for you.

Thank you Sidious I will try that I heard Duracell Ultra Batteries are good.
And Maul thanks on the advice Ill try to find your brand of batteries as well as others to see what the results come to.
And thank you Adenn. You probably got annoyed when it kept goin off every night lol.
Thanks guys there are currently no batteries in the saber at the moment and looking forward to getting better batteries for this DESTRUCTIVE WEAPON!!! ;D

*Edit
I dont know if this harms the hilt/saber but I have this Magnetic Therapy Bracelet I wear, would the magnetic force of the magnets ruin the saber anyway just to be safe I'll take it off every time I pick it up for now.
