Hello all, new here. I have been looking on the forums for a bit. I got my NewWish greenie today that I got off the bay for $36.00 shipped.
I though I would just confirm they ARE pot moddable.
The pot is not visible from the battery end opening so I did not know if it had one at all. So I cut a section the size of the board off the top, and sure enough there it was, the freindly pot.
It is situated at about 3mm from the edge of the switch hole, so now you know you can just drill it.
Power measurement using green LED before mod was measured at about 3.5mW. After the mod, it jumped to an amazing 42mW. However, I do not know exactly how accurate this is. It is also perfectly stable, no low output starts.
I can now see the beam pretty clearly in a room lit with a 60 watt incandescent.
Just though you all would like to know you can get a roughly 40mW greenie for less than $40, you may even be able to squeeze more out of one, mine will go no higher.
Have fun, and be safe.
