This thread is the first time ive heard of being sure to remove the batteries from the saber when not in use. I was sure I could leave them alone for a while when not in use. I have had them for a month and have only removed and charged them once. Im about due for doing so soon tho, but I had no clue that yall do this so frequently.

There are multiple forum posts on this topic, as well as the paper insert that comes with the saber if you get a Li Ion Buckpuck setup.  The Li Ion rechargeables are best not left in the saber.  There is a tiny drain even with the batteries off, and they can 'forget' how to charge if left to completely discharge.  Leave on the counter, or preferably plugged in on the charger.

There are at least two sides to every story, and typically the truth is found somewhere in the middle.

From my point of view, I have the high ground!

Pretty much. Although, the little flyer should come with every US purchase (at least ones that have sabers in them) - I ordered 3 separate times, twice for sabers that use AAA's and got the flyers every time.

When you recieve your saber you get a paper in the box that says that the best way of keeping your batteries is to store them in the charger if youre not going to use the saber for a long period of time.
