A ten-part series. Soldering skills and tools required. If thou wouldst rather we do the work, return to the Forge and ask Zade about the complete blade service.










I was born of a small moon, Seeker — far from these stones, in a house that knew the keeping of records before I was old enough to read them. When the Empire found in our core an alloy that suited their hunger for coaxium, they mined until the ground forgot how to hold together, and my people were lost in a single hour. I was at the Archives upon Coruscant when the news came; I have been a keeper of records ever since.
I am no Jedi — though I learned at their feet, and the Force moveth through me as it moveth through all living things. The records remember them, even when none living do.
— A fuller telling waiteth still. The records remember more than I have set before thee.
When I came to Batuu, these spires were trees, Seeker — petrified now, but green once, and tall. The records remember their breathing, and the songs that grew along their bark. Travelers built among them; smiths made forges in their shadow; the spires gave their names to the outposts that grew beside them.
— The fuller telling waiteth still upon a Keeper's hand. Return another day; the records keep no hours.
Welcome to the Outpost Archive — the records vault of Black Spire Sabers, kept by Malsin Yundo. Here you'll find setup guides, troubleshooting walkthroughs, and DIY install holovids for Galaxy's Edge lightsabers, Savi's Workshop hilts, and the Black Spire Sabers Enhanced Blade Controller.
A 7-part Saber Academy video series covers every feature of the enhanced blade — the 64-color picker, 7 lighting animations, brightness control, and the segmented and multi-segment display modes. Useful for new owners learning the controls and for builders evaluating the blade before purchase.
A 7-part teardown walkthrough for Savi's Workshop hilts from Disney's Galaxy's Edge. Covers internal components, power and pogo pins, upper hilt alignment, failure points, troubleshooting blade connection problems, and full reassembly. Independent reference — useful whether or not you own a Black Spire Sabers product.
A 7-step (plus bonus) install walkthrough for the DIY Enhanced Blade Controller board. Soldering required. Covers stock blade teardown, board testing, removal of the original control board, contact prep, soldering the new controller to the LED strip, battery and ground connections, and reassembly. Watch this series in full before purchasing the DIY kit — it's not the place to learn soldering.
Two printable references are available: the Blade Controller Field Guide (a single-page quick-reference PNG covering every button combination and feature) and the Enhanced Blade Controller User Guide (a full PDF user manual). Both are free downloads — no account or signup required.
Malsin Yundo, Keeper of the Archive, can answer questions about setup, install steps, troubleshooting, and recommended approaches for your specific Galaxy's Edge lightsaber. The chat above is available whenever the Archive is open.
