Received my replacement head from banggood two days ago. The package it was shipped in did not inspire confidence (just a plastic bag and a sheet of foam) but the replacement seems to be functioning correctly now. So my issue is resolved for now but Iāll update if I have more issues in the future!
Hi, this is my first post here so hope itās OK to replyā¦ I have an issue with the switch on my GT Mini. It intermittent doesnāt respond to my clicks, it also switches itself off and sometimes flickers when ramping up/down the brightness.
I bought from NealsGadgets and Iām hopeful Neal will resolve it for me, I love this light!
Hi, thanks for the warm welcome!
I have contacted Neal, although only this evening (UK) so I am giving him a good amount time to respond I have complete faith he will help me sort it out, however that needs to work. I adore the light so hopefully it will get sorted, if notā¦ just an excuse to buy more lights!
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¦.

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.
