WRITE REVIEW
The Stellar Saber Tube is perforated with hundreds of fine pinholes set out in diagonal rows, so the blade lights up as a drifting field of stars instead of a solid bar. A frosted inner layer sits behind the perforations and feeds every point the same amount of the RGB Critter's light.
The Clear Saber Twist-On Cap is in the box with this tube, at no extra cost. Thread it onto the tip for a brighter blade, and push a Flow Cap over the top of it if you want to run both.
Needs the RGB Critter Tube Adapter and an RGB Critter Light Engine, both sold separately.

Highlights
- Hundreds of fine pinholes in diagonal rows, a dense star field
- The smallest openings of any cut saber tube, so each point stays tight and distinct
- Impact-resistant polycarbonate tubing
- Pushes into the RGB Critter Tube Adapter and locks with two set screws
- Includes the Saber Twist-On Cap in Clear, at no extra cost. The tip end is threaded from the factory, so the cap goes straight on and its built-in reflector bounces light back down the tube for a brighter, fuller blade. Sol ships the White cap, and the Honeycomb, Butterfly and Stellar tubes ship the Clear one
- Light painting tubes are a different part: 5 to 29 inch have no threads and cannot take a Twist-On Cap at all, and only the 36 inch is threaded
- Ships with a protective silicone cap on both ends to keep dust and dirt out in transit. Those are packaging, not a Flow Cap
- Covered by AOAM's 2-year warranty, with a lifetime upgrade at checkout
What the cut does
Because each opening is tiny the pattern holds its pinpoint shape even at speed, and the body of the tube reads dark between the points. Under a long exposure it lays down fine dotted spirals rather than a broad band.
How it connects
- Twist the RGB Critter Tube Adapter onto the front of your RGB Critter.
- Push this tube into the adapter's socket.
- Tighten the adapter's two set screws with the hex key that comes with it. The six openings along the top of the adapter are light ports, not screws.
Parts you may need
- RGB Critter Tube Adapter (required). The mounting end of the tube has no thread, so this is what holds it on your Critter. It twists onto the Critter's front, the tube pushes into its socket, and two set screws lock it down. Skip it only if you already own one.
Compatible with all RGB Critter Light Engines (sold separately).
