I got the 2 mm version of this size. That product is out of stock. If I ordered again, would probably get this one (1.5 mm) since part of the tail o-ring is exposed. Others earlier commented that a 1 mm thick would work, but I never tried those.
I’m up for a Gen II. Sounds like some nice improvements. Me and my apprentice use ours daily (plumbing hvac) and I was hoping I could obtain another 219b in the future. Looks like it will happen.
Had a screw up tonight. Dropped my light while taking it off my head and it landed bezel down on the linoleum floor in my mud room. I picked it up to this,
Anyone ever replace the glass on their PL47 before? Recommendations?
I can’t help you source a new lens but hopefully someone else here knows the dimensions and a source for replacements, also don’t know how easy/reliable reinstalling the press fit bezel ring will be.
However, I did open my Gen 1 up for the 219Bs when the swtich died, so:
1 - Carefully shatter the lens (You’re already a step ahead of me!!! )
2 - Use a small pliers, tweezers, etc. to pull out any pieces you can. Something small to pry/lever them out may work too, but this could scratch the optic underneath if you care about that.
3 - Wedge a small screwdriver or knife under the bezel ring where the lens was and lever it upwards slowly, working around the circumference of the ring. Don’t try to pop it all the way up in any single spot all at once, just a little at a time prevents it from being wedged into place on the opposite side.
Does anyone know when the PL47 gen 3 comes out? I want to buy one but the gen 2 supply seems to be pretty low and not the best led options. Fireflies website said gen 2 was discontinued, waiting on gen 3.
I’m not sure on Gen 3. I do have a Gen 2 and love it. Got an extra in the box if you are in the US and want it? I got mine when they did the US Warehouse thing last year. I hope they go back to doing that….hint hint!
