JETBeam JET-u problem and fix

It may be useful, so I upload here.

My friend bought a JETBeam JET-u flashlight. I had, I know the lights is not a complicated structure.

Have you had problems with her new, sometimes the light faded. The pill unrolled, put it together again any reason. A few weeks later he called, now only sometimes dimly lit what to do. I was brought here, I checked, were split and error it is done. The driver soldering broken, so it was not a good power transmission.

I made several photos of the driver.

The area marked in red was a mistake.

Hot soldering iron gently thawed again since then, as new, it works perfectly.

If you encounter any of these errors, it should first see if, construction is not perfect.

My review is here.

i am having Jetbeam 1 MK
how can you pull the driver out?

I do not have to, if you like the JET-u (threaded pill) need to solder the LED is off, then backward to complete the driver to make out.

what “backward” means, sir?
you mean “turn backward” ?

Thanks for the report and photos WestBam. That driver looks tricky to work on.

Sorry for my bad English.

LED solder off -> the back of the pill on the driver comes out.

THANKS for your help
i’m not native speaker too, but at least we try

Just a little bit difficult.
Tiny in size, must be careful soldering. :nerd_face:
We love challenges, in addition we did not have to return to China in mail a replacement piece :slight_smile: :+1:
