Olight S1 Mini Parts Needed!

Flashlight Modding and DIY Parts
1

I have a couple Olight S1 Mini HCRIs.
Like many here, I like the Olight S1 Mini, except the LED tint.

I finally got up the nerve to destroy, I mean upgrade one of these lights. I have a some Nichia 4000k and 4500k 9080 LEDs to upgrade them, so this should be close to perfect when I’m done.
I basically followed the “procedure” shown by X3 here: Olight S1 Mini teardown

During the destruction, I mean disassembly, the blue press in lens retention ring was lost. The lens took a lot of force to pop out, and when it did the ring flew.
I spent hours searching. I don’t know where it could have went…

So, does any anyone here happen to have an extra retention ring that fits the S1 mini? Other ideas to replace this ring?
I know I’ve read of a few others that have upgraded their S mini with the lens from the HCRI S1 mini. Do you still have the retention ring that you would be willing to send me for a few dollars?
I’m sure I’m not the only one that has had issues with their mod attempt.

Auto mechanics call them “Jesus Clips”. When they pop them off and they go flying across the shop, they say “JESUS”

Maybe try contacting Olight in Georgia. They might (but probably won’t) send you a few spares from China

Thanks for the advice so far.
I’ve contacted Olight. I even offered to buy a few parts to make the deal worthwhile.
I’m sure there are people that would be interested in XPG compatible optics.

- X3 -, I replied to your PM.
