LED goes dull and light green

Hi Everyone!

I own a Cyolops 6 LED head lamp. One LED now shines dim green light. Is it damaged and it damaged how to replace it?

Sounds like it overheated or got too much current (and thus overheated). You would un solder it and solder in a new led of your choice..

When white leds are overdriven to the point of over heating/failure they turn blueish green and dim way down.

What he said... either the LED had a lower Vf and fried or your batteries are very weak and it has a higher Vf and should light up properly with new ones.
