·What Causes Lightsabers to Turn off When Dropped?·

12-28

-2022

Lightsabers are like knives or swords. We are aware that knives do not automatically fold when dropped. Why do lightsabers switch off when dropped in that situation? We need to explain the workings of lightsabers in order to comprehend this query. What exactly is Tarkata and why is it important? So let's examine how lightsabers function.

The Lightsaber and Its Uses
A lightsaber is an all-crushing laser sword. These swords can slash through heavy metal doors, boulders, and even blasters.

The blade of a lightsaber looks like a laser but is really made of pure plasma. This plasma blade's temperature may rise as high as 25000 C. Additionally, a lightsaber attack might feel like a thunderbolt. Everything is melted by the lightsaber strike and its warmth, giving the impression that the blade is cutting it.

Diatium power cells are embedded into the hilt of a lightsaber. These Diatium power cells have a long lifespan. The Kyber crystals are the other significant item in the hilt. In Star Wars, the lightsaber blade is colored by these natural crystals. But they also serve a more significant purpose. It increases the energy of the blade.

The Kyber crystal amplifies the plasma blade's energy by a factor of a hundred as the Diatium power cells ignite it. A lightsaber is only used by Force users in Star Wars since it takes extensive training and the use of the Force to operate one successfully.

Diatium power cells are regarded as indestructible batteries in lightsabers. Even though Jedis only charge them every year or two, they have a self-charging feature. Similar to the Kyber crystals, which are living things that eat Dark matter (Space.) So a lightsaber has infinite energy and can be used forever.

Star Wars lightsabers come in a wide variety of styles and hues, but they all share a same internal structure and set of capabilities. Multiple Kyber crystals can be found in some lightsabers. The lightsaber used by Darth Vader has two crystals. The Umbrella lightsaber of a Sith Lord who appears in the Vision series also included several Kyber crystals.

So What Causes Lightsabers to Turn off When Dropped?
We are aware that a lightsaber has an ON and OFF button on the hilt. Without hitting the button, a lightsaber cannot be turned ON. By doing this, Jedis are prevented from inadvertently turning it on when the lightsaber hilt is attached to their belt. But when the Jedi drops it without touching the button, it shuts off. The explanation is that it is built to automatically switch off when falling for safety. For this, a safety switch is employed.

Safety Switch
While utilizing the lightsaber, you must continue to hold this switch. The switch will turn off and the lightsaber will extinguish if the lightsaber is dropped from the hand. This switch is helpful for preventing the lightsaber from sliding out of the user's grasp when lightsaber fencing. Anyone who is in its way might suffer severe injury.

Some people think the safety switch, although a safeguard, is a flaw in the lightsaber that needs to be fixed. They contend that the safety switch can prevent fights. When the switch is being held with your thumb, wielding a lightsaber might be challenging. The lightsaber will also not turn off if the switch becomes stuck, endangering the user's neighbors.

Therefore, George Lucas created Star Wars Lightsabers in a way that they automatically switch off when they drop off the hand in order to avoid circumstances where you may harm others or yourself.

Some individuals also think that the Jedi can activate and deactivate the lightsaber at will. There is no reliable information on this, making it very improbable. Yes, especially with the lightsaber, they can move things with the Force. Still, they cannot turn the lightsabers on and off at will.

The Jedis have managed to overcome the flaw. They address the drawback of holding the switch by using the Force power to keep it on hold so they do not have to maintain their hand's attention on it. Holding a switch with one hand can cause distraction, and in Jedi-Sith confrontations, even a split second might be the difference between life and death.

How Long Does It Take to Full Charge? And How Long Will It Last After It's Done Charging?

The batteries need to be fully charged for four hours in-between uses. Typically, the battery life is roughly two hours. The reason for the slow charge is because the charger only has a 5V and 0.5A output. Do not use a power source that is over 1A and 5V to charge your lightsaber!!!
