Butterfly Saber Tube
WRITE REVIEW
The Butterfly Saber Tube is cut with two opposing rows of wide chevron slots that read as butterfly wings running the length of the blade. A frosted inner layer spreads the RGB Critter's light evenly behind them so every wing lights the same, and the solid bars between the slots keep the shape crisp.
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 flashlight, both sold separately.

Highlights
- Two opposing rows of wide chevron slots, read as butterfly wings
- Wide apertures over a frosted inner diffuser, for a bold, high-contrast blade
- 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
- The two end caps stack, so it is never one or the other. Thread the Twist-On Cap on first, then push a Flow Cap over the top of it. Run either cap on its own, or both together
- Light painting tubes are a different part: 6 to 30 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 Limited Lifetime Warranty
What the cut does
In the dark the chevrons stay separate instead of blurring into one continuous glow, so spins and rolls trail as a repeating angled pattern. Under a long exposure the same cut draws banded, arrowhead-shaped trails rather than a smooth ribbon of light.
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 Flashlights (sold separately).
