Ruined LuxV WW0S

Tried to remove a WW0S by torquing the can it was adhered to and the emitter itself. It was kinda cool seeing the emitter housing turn while the core stayed stationary. Oh well, live and learn.

expensive lesson, but one that you will never forget
onto the next mod!!!

Wierd. I dreamed last night that I destroyed a Lux V. Maybe I can read minds...

Ouch! Shao, I hope it wasn't from the L4. I think I've ruined perfectly salvageable Luxeons 6 times so far.

It was from another mod. I wanted the WW0S for another L4, oh well.

Id bet we all have have done it. My cherry was also a good W-luxV also, too bad not a cheap LuxI.

I dont even waste my time now popping the emitters off (mounting them is fine).

Strange, I just ruined a UXOK 10 minutes ago in my first attempt at removal.

I don't think my wife would like that.

From one married man to another: always tell your wife you dream of her! If I told my wife I was dreaming of flashlights, I would suddenly have computer problems, and FirstDsent would be no more.

P.S. However, I would find a new use for my mod hosts. I could place a small DC motor in the head, and drive an eccentric flywheel, replace the clickie with a potetiometer, and......
