Opening the WT-1?

[Portaphile]

Anyone had any success opening the LED housing on the Regalight WT-1? I dropped mine a few days back and it stopped working. Now I want to try to check the LED electronics to see what's wrong. Any usefull information out there?

It's a bit of work but it's really worth it.

As it shares it's weak point with the Tiablo A9 the solution is the same, change the driver. It's the inductor/transformer coil that have a tendency to break off from the driver board when the light is subjected to sharp and sudden impacts.
