I am modding my budget jetbeam 1mk
Change the emiter
The problem is the stock wire is quite short, and i accidentally pull out it, so i need to resolder it to driver
But i can’t access the driver board, it’s too tough(picture attched)
I tried twisting, and using vise, but still can’t pull it out
Pls help me, this is my second mod
Is the retaining ring for the driver screwed, glued, or press fit?
I guess it’s press fit
And Glued, too
I guess it’s press fit
And Glued, too
Driver is just glued around the edge, remove the mcpcb and push it with something not sharp.
I used a copper tube, and a vise, but it’s no help
I can’t see your picture and don’t understand what is the vice for… just place the head on a table, and insert something through the shelf hole to push the driver down. I used a flat screwdriver to remove mine.
I assume you have already removed the bezel and MCPCB?
Oh, as you can see in my picture i removed the benzen and mcpcb
The problem is accessing the driver board
Well, english is not my native language, so maybe it’s hard to understand me
I put a cooper tube on the surface of driver(the white/gray facr in the picture, then put it between 2 clamps of the vise(no idea how it is called in English)
Used all my power, but it didnt work
Can you upload the picture somewhere else? It doesn’t load for me.
When you say Copper tube, I think you’re pushing the driver the wrong direction… Push the driver out from the front, by inserting something through the wire hole. Add some heat to soften the glue.
Actually it’s 1 AM at my place
I will post it to somewhere else, can you suggest some free host without register, thanks
It’s basically like this
|Clamp|copper tube=head|clamp|
I seriously think your pushing the driver the WRONG way. You need to push it out, not in.
Yeah, i think i made some mistake
But i need to sleep now, don’t want to wake up my family
You are pushing the driver the wrong direction.
Use an allen key wrench or two equal length at the same time. Push it into the 2x holes and the driver should pop out into the direction of the battery compartment.
This may damage the driver though.
Maybe you are thinking this light has removeable pill? The led shelf is one with the flashlight head so you must remove the driver by poking through the holes in the shelf as stated above.
Dont care for pushing out the driver get some heat shrinking tube and extend the wires
did the same with the noctigon in my Nitecore P12 had to extend both wires to make it fit
Oh, wow, didnt think about that
Let me try
