Trying to remove strobe mode from led (circuit pictures included)

[adamsmh663]

Hi guys I have bought an elcheapo led torch from ebay. (also apologies if this is the wrong section/forum, mods please move it)

The thing annoying me about is the modes it has 3 modes Hi/Lo and strobe . I want a simple torch with on/off, but i could live with hi/lo, but absolutely hate strobe.

Anyway here are the circuit pictures so hopefully one of you guys can see what i need to mod to make it a simple on/off torch and remove atleast strobe.


pics:




and a panit drawing if you cant quite make out the details.


the black boxes are like transistors or something they are soldered onto the circuit board (sorry im not expert in electronics) but i do know basics and shoudl be able to do a simple solder.



thanks in advance

What is the picture of the back of the circuit board?

You can also put in a new LED driver - most are between $5-10 from ASIA, and they typically have solderable bridges so that you can change the behavior:

You can just Google for "7135 LED Driver" and should get plenty of links to review, study, etc..
