Contacting TnC?

[ExMachina]

My HyperLux recently stopped working Not sure what happened. I baby-ed this light too so it didn't die from abuse.

I've tried PM-ing TnC here but no reply so far...

If TnC is no longer in business, any suggestions on who I could send the light to for a refurbish?

Thanks guys.

...and if TnC can't help, are there any modification I can my myself???

Probably depends on the version of the HyperLux.

If it's one of the later models with a driver, it probably uses one of ARC mania's converters, and I've seen him update quite a few HyperLux V's and SuperFlashlight III's. cmacclel has done a few as well. If you don't get a response from TnC, I'd try one of them. Updating it might not be cheap, but those HyperLux hosts are too nice to discard, and with so much mass, they have almost endless modding possibilities.

Thanks for the hint about ARC mania! And yup, you got it--it's too nice of a light to just ignore.

Still am hoping that I can get in touch w/ TnC...what do you guys think my chances are? Has anybody else had luck in contacting Eric in the past several weeks?

Eric still posts periodically, so I imagine he'll chime in eventually.

And, he's always responded to my e-mails promptly.

Ok, so perhaps PM-ing him here is not the best way to contact him. I'm going to now try sending a message through the TnC website.

Fingers crossed!

You could try catsndog1 @ earthlink.net

Eric's not such a compulsive forum user as most of us around here. He's not on every day. Give him a couple of days to respond.

Thanks for the posts guys. I thought I sent a PM previously, but I'll send another now.

Actually catsndog1 is no longer a good email. It's best to reach me through PMs, through the TnC Online Store Email, or through my paypal emails: bogus1cash AT GMAIL Dot COM or Bogus1cc AT GMAIL Dot COM.

Thanks Chris and Eric!
