Hi all. I have a GT Nano, early version without USB charging, that died from liquid ingress. The reflector and the driver are dead. Any clues on how to source replacement parts? TIA.
Naturally no reply from Lumintop.

It might be possible to get the reflector from Lumintop, or replace the damaged reflector with TIR optics, not ideal but better than nothing. For the driver you can get the V2 Frog and use the driver on your Nano, same dimensions and functionality, unless your Nano is a V1 specimen. It would still fit the V1 body and your light would still work, but you will lose Narsil UI. Very wasteful process but it is what it is.
Ultimately better than trying to build one I guess…! I may be able to go through the old one and replace components… It’s a copper host so it’s got some value in that.
Thanks for the help.
Ooh I just saw MTN offers a 12mm momentary switch driver… That would work if I could figure out the mechanical placement of the switch.
Is the old driver Narsil? If yes, it’s worth the effort to fix it and flash anduril in it. Same electrical schematic and hex as the T1616 SP36/Q8+.
Edit: not sure about the Attiny model, it could be the QFN T85 or the T1616, I don’t remember clearly.
I’ll bet that’s what it is. I’ll see if I can repair the original. It was pretty severely corroded so I sonicated it in some dilute phosphoric acid and deionized water. I’ll reflow it when it’s totally dry. Oh, and I’ll cross my fingers.
