Quantum DD mods

[blitz255]

So as Craig has mentioned modding the emitters in the light easy. Before I tear into my light I was curious if anyone out there would be willing to post a quick tutorial on just how easy this could be. Maybe with pics even.

Thanks to anyone willing to help out.

The only person I know who's modified theirs is Craig. He mentioned to me that it's easy to do, but, I'm quite happy with mine so I have no intention of modding mine. The only thing I'm even considering doing with mine is to make a 10440 body for it.

I am sure that at the moment Craig is the only one that has done mods. My thinking was that if anyone is thinking of changing emitters that maybe they could just snap some pics and post them on the forum to help out anyone else thinking of modding.

I'd like to see tritium setups too!

I would like to note that when I posted the picture, I only wanted to convey the fact that the lights were easy to modify, not that I was doing the mods for others.

The mod is simple, take out the retaining ring, and the pill comes right out. if, not, use the back of a pencil and push on the lens and optics assembly until the LED assembly falls out. remove and reflow on a new emitter.

What tool did you use to get the retaining ring out? I've been trying to use two small screwdrivers but I can't get the ring to turn.

I used a pair of Tweezers, worked perfectly.
