My battery died on my Exposure Race Maxx2. I took it apart and replaced the LI-ON battery and everything
worked until I put it back together.
Since I didn't know which side to take a part I took both ends a part. When putting it back together the
heatsink or (star ?) lifted out of its groove and turned, this caused the optics lens to tear the optics dome off
the LEDS.
I know nothing about LED's. After many hours of searching the internet and reading the forums, I came to
the conclusion that they are some type of Seoul Semiconductor LED's from the 2008 era. I bought this light
about Dec 2008.
Specs on the light:
The light uses a pair of 18650's Li-on's tied in parallel and the LED's look like the are wired in series.

- What type of LED's are these, there are no markings, ie model number, are these W42180-U2 ?
- What is the difference between a U1 , U2 Bin ( in laymans's terms ?? I am clueless)
- Where can I get these LED's , (in USA)?
- Are these LED's glued to the star/heat shield or soldered ?
- How do you take them apart ?
- Any pointers would be helpful.
TIA
