First post onto this forum, take pity if the query is a bit lowly
So I've taken the risk after reading far too little on the MXDL "bargains" on ebay. Picked up a 3W "luxeon" light for 0.1cent. Paid the Prime minister of Hong Kong to personally deliver it going by the shipping rates applied and from what I've read I may get a decent torch for the price but may also just as likely get junk.
If the latter, can I swap out the LED for a sourced Luxeon star by simply removing and resoldering in the legit led ?
Ultimately this was going to be my first foray into self made bike lighting anyway - half the fun is in stuffing it up and having a good laugh.
Thanks
