Hello I have the L21 with SBT90.2 and have screwed it up by installing the battery backwards. It actually does still work but stuck on 100 or 50 percent power only and I’m not sure which.
I would have never tried installing a new cell in the dark had I knew there was no protection.
Anyway Simon sent me links for 2 things,
- New driver that is now protected
- New tail switch
My question is how difficult will it be to install this new driver? Does this mean I will have to remove my SBT90.2 and install it on the new driver?? As in like de solder it?? If so I have no equipment to even do this.
Or is it just 2 wires that will need soldering?? Even that is going to suck because I want it to be nice and professional. I asked Simon if there was a way to order the parts I need already all put together where I can just screw it in and I’m not even sure he understood this being his reply didn’t seem like he did. Anyway I’m just wanting to figure out if I’m going to be able to do this. If not I guess I’d try and find someone who could.
Also can anyone tell me if the new driver is better than the old one?? Mainly which one puts out more juice?? This is just my fun light so I want it super awesome!!!
