Titanium sure is expensive where you live
My expensive ($25) multi-meter broke. Screen no longer works even with new battery. Funny thing is my cheap harbor freight multi-meter keeps on working and has been for at least 2 years. lol
I know, right?
They even put it on crookedâŚ
Almost had a screw break throughâŚ
But oh well, bone is already fusing to the plate, guess itâs too late to finagle it into true at this point, huh? lol
Dale, I hope you have health insurance. If so, how much did they cover out of that almost $101k?
Broke a Zaneflare F6 little brass 10180 light. Got it apart to find out it has the emitter board with components on the underside. Not emitter swappable for my level.
Put it back together and no workie. Its (Was) an ugly greenish tint. Good thing I only paid $5 for it. Really a useless light⌠Whistle does not work and is a waste of space making the light longer and heavier that it should be. The head design wastes space too. Really could have been a nice little light, in Brass. Almost as long as my AAA Olight I3E EOS Copper. For the $5 deal I bought more than one, makes this one a parts light. Managed to shorten another to a somewhat usable sizeâŚ
Note to self: Always check the temperature setting before reflowing. :person_facepalming:
Didnât quite break it, but gave my M1 a sizable crack to the lens. I didnât set it down properly on the towel rack and it fell, and in my hurry to catch it I sent my hand hurtling down and only managed to slap it downwards to hit the ground even harder.
Look on the bottom right of the bezel:
Now Iâm waiting for the replacement lenses. Simon is a real bro!
Yeesh. That happened to me once, in an office building. This crazy guy Hans Grßber busted a whole bunch of windows and I had to go across that floor⌠barefooty!
Ouch!
On the bright side, now you got a DTP boardâŚ
I was going to write that I âbrokeâ an AT01 (true POS through and through⌠think they arrive broken), because the switch was going all mental and the thing was going bright, dim, strobe, stutter, etc., but I kindasorta âfixedâ it, at least âtil I look at it crooked again.
Looks like a nice light, but itâs not. Avoid, avoid, avoid.
duh i damaged my Convoy S2+ by overdriving it :person_facepalming:
Wouldnât that be âmod, mod, modâ? That said, I donât know its base price.

So⌠no, no, no.
Broke my D4 driver, I think, when trying to remove it, unsuccessfully :cry: :person_facepalming: . Only other option is that I broke a switch wire in the process, which at least would be fixable. If not, well, I guess I now have 4x 5000k 219c 90+CRI emitters I have to find a new home to
This is a flashlight forum but I just light tipped over my french press & shattered it on my counter :person_facepalming: . I canât find my spare anywhere. Thus no coffee in the morning for me
Does that count?

You have my deepest condolences. When we lose a loved one here on earth, we gain an angel in heaven that watches over us.

Iâve broken so many of my one mug french presses, finally bought one with a bit thicker glass from Ikea and it has lasted me 6 months so far.
Back to flashlights: I think I broke my mtn fet+7135 driver while trying to solder it to a pill. First three modes are now the same and super dim and then the next 3 go back to how it was before. No idea why I only lost the first 3 modes. Going to take it out and see if something came unsoldered.
I just got my two Astrolux S42 lights which I plan on doing driver replacements. On opening the first one I broke the legs of the optics and shaved off the domes of the LEDs. That nice Nichia tint is now horrible blue⌠I was a lot more careful on opening the second
Mike C, that looks like the scene of a terrible accident! :cry:
How did I not see this thread until today?
While trying to file down the retaining ring to fit the TA driver from Lexel, i just might have applied somewhat to much force and the retaining ring just snapped!
