Yep, the glue killed the idea of a simple driver replacement for me too.
Be sure to PM or email Neal about this if you have not already.
Good luck. :+1:
To update my situation, I received my replacement head from Neal today, very happy with his service! Fingers crossed this switch will not have issues. It does feel firmer and a more positive click but that might just be because itās new.
my replacement works perfect one month later or more so guess they did a better job second time. And yes the button feels better not because new its because they changed something i guess, older was worse.
Unless I missed someone, I count 17 people to date who have posted about switch problems. They areā¦.

Anyone else having any type GT Mini switch problems besides the people I mentioned above??
ā¦ā¦ā¦ List updated. P33 & A92AA0B03E both RESOLVED, 23 November 2018_
It was originally because people complained about the āhold until hotā method being obnoxious. Factory calibration is a bonus though. Itās also easier to implement, and takes less space.
To make things easier in the future though, Iām adding a factory reset function with auto-calibration. So people shouldnāt really need to enter the temperature manually unless they want to fine-tune it.
I am a little disappointed with the attitude of Neals. I bought a lot of flashlights from him for a lot of money, and to submit my problem with a switch in GTmini, he offered me a $ 5 rebate. It does not change anything. Head replacement or even the driver may help. At the most I will try to unscrew the glued frame. I do not react to my next e-mails anymore. Itās a pity, because until now I was very happy with shopping with him. Well packaged and good contact, but you can see, as most of the sellers from the east, with the problems their attitude changes completely. Iām sad.
weird, most of us that asked including me for replacement head was no problem to get? just ask again, say u just want a replacement head like everyone else here that bought the light during group buy got, its clear that a large number of lights from that batch suffered from a faulty switchā¦
I have already sent a few e-mails, I will not be more. There are many sellers, not just Neals. So in the future I will simply buy from someone else. I still have a big list with purchases, so its his loss.
ok i understand its weird he seems like an ok guy to deal with, not sure why he is ignoring u to send new replacement headā¦ yeah try buy somewhere else if hes not willing to help i would do same.
Your camera angle is incorrect, the bezel is not parallel to the camera lens, thus a wide area of the bezel is pictured on the lower bottom and no bezel edge showing at top. That being said the led looks to be uncentered to some degree.
