Soniq7
Newly Enlightened
Anybody have a link on how this can be done?
You may be able to repair this with the liquid electrical tape repair available at RadioShack. I saw it next to the ProGold contacts cleaner stuff. Supposed to be used to fix this type of problem and rear window defrosters without soldering.jsr said:Just a warning to Soniq7, I did this and accidentally overheated the copper pads on the PCB (they're very thin) making them come off. Now, my "2-stage" switch goes off-high-off-off-high-off most of the time. On the seldom times it works somewhat, it goes low-high-low-low-high-off. One the virtually never times it works perfectly, it goes low-high-off-low-high-off. I need a better soldering iron!
Anyone have a spare Q3 switch PCB?

This one is On1-On2-Off

There is another with the same form factor that is On1-Off-On2
jsr said:blindasabat - thanks for the info on the RS liquid electrical tape. Honestly, I'm not sure what the problem is. On occasion, the low does work...it seems to be dependent somewhat (not solely) to how far I screw the tailcap in and sometimes even the battery I use (R123A vs. 123A).
lumenhound - yeah, I knew Warren carries/carried them, but he's a tough guy to get a hold of usually. I was hoping someone had one more readily available.
