Where is the boost circuit--at the head near the LED, or in the removable tail part? Is the LED itself potted? If the LED is accessible, I have an idea for a mod. Thanks.

I'm no modder, but the circuit's definitely at the head. There's nothing in the tailcap except for a spring... Hope it helps...

I just took a look at my Sonic, and I agree. The circuitry must be in the head, because there's only a spring and a metal washer in the tailpiece, and the Sonic turns on if I remove the tailpiece and shove a knife blade in the barrel.

It does look a bit like a dog urinator, but certainly nothing I'd flatten with a hammer. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif
