I took a look inside my LT1, the rubber piece has a long . . .
nah, this needs a picture.
It looks like a replacement would feed through the body and one could grab the piece before the retention piece has to squeeze through the body. Likely a little isopropyl alcohol would help with the job also.
It looks like it broke right where the widened portion is. With length like that it should be easy enough to pull through. Thanks for the photo
I was about to forward this light to a relative in CA, but they are definitely not going to be able to install a new one themselves. So I’ll delay the sending I guess.
I lost mine 2nd time out. It’s my hope they’ll offer The switch cover as well, just from experience I know I’ll need a few and possibly an o-ring or two. Oh and if ever offered I’d buy an extra shade or two.
I Do Like this lamp though. Other than these somewhat minor details the thing is built like a tank and runs for days.
Mine just arrived 30 minutes ago. Ordered 17 October after receiving Private Message with Group Buy Code from Sofirn. Man, I love this lantern! Thank you to DBSAR, Lexel, ToyKeeper and everyone who had a hand in the design,creation, programming and execution! The Anduril UI seems very intuitive after a couple of tries. I thought that the lantern would be bigger, I’m glad its not! Love it! I hope everyone that wants one gets one!
We have mentioned the issue about the USB-C cover flap, with some having them break or loose them, hopefully they can rectify the problem with them breaking.
When I charge my LT I pull the cover off a bit and then rotate it out of the way in order to plug in the connector rather than pulling it up and out of the way. I have no evidence to back it up but my feeling is that it places less stress on the the part that attaches to the LT.
Thanks for the help guys. I just sent a message to Barry/Sofirn as MtnDon had suggested and he got back very promptly to send out a couple of spares, fantastic service.
I have several of the first 500 reserved… yet still haven’t been able to order a single unit. Hopefully all of us who have followed this project from the beginning will have a chance to receive all the lanterns we’ve preordered.
