I was watching Star Wars but i noticed the lightsabers has two buttons
Is it like one is for Turning on the lightsaber and one off? I didn’t get why

Power switch and length setting
Although it may vary by model since each saber is generally bespoke to its user/creator
Each saber is customized to the user. No two are alike outside of those used by the inquisition. Two buttons are the most common but not the only. Typically it’s one button for on/off and a second control for adjusting blade length or power to the blade if using it in a practice setting or where full cutting potential isn’t needed.
Additional functions seen include detachable secondary blades, dead hand systems, extendable split hilts, and rotating hilts. All easily manipulated by a single hand. Some duelists also include multiple kill switches to prevent opponents from using the force to activate or deactivate their sabers mid battle by locking the saber controls to a combination of button and toggle controls.
On/off and long/short
There are always two sith lords. Therefore there are always two buttons.
strobe mode
All sabers seen to have a switch to turn it less lethal too.
Soo I guess that is the second button.
It skips ads if you have a LightSaber™ PremiumPro™ subscription.
I had always headcanoned that one was a dead man’s switch, so the lightsaber would turn off if dropped (like when Luke Skywalker is disarmed), while the other was a locking switch, so the lightsaber would stay on if thrown (like Vader’s solution to Luke having the “high ground”).
But reading others’ answers about blade length and power variance is fascinating.
One is for turning it on and off, the other isn’t a button but a dial to set the variable for blade parameters – usually to fine-tune the length or acitaviton speed.
One turns it on/off. One starts the fight music. I have mine set to Who Let The Dogs Out. Really throws off my opponent.
