I just swapped the leds between a SL stylus and a photon clone (free from lighthound)


holy crap, I feel like Thomas Edison.


hold your applause, but thank you.

It's a great feeling indeed Adam, the mod bug strikes again...

Love how even simple mods can put a big smile on your face, brings out the inner child!

Highorder,

Good going. good luck on your future ones. what was the result? can you tell
me how to remove the led from the stylus? tried on mine, but it was stuck or
glued in. Regards, Gordon

I got my advice from a helpful CPF'er.

SMACK IT HARD, and you will be able to push it out the rear. it is a press fit plastic cylinder, and it will come out. as for a result, I used the led from the photon with no resistor, thinking that 2x 2032 @3V each is more than 3AAAA @1.5V each. I cant quantify the results past the point of saying it works. the led from the Stylus had corrosion on one of the legs, making the light flicker.

today I made a 1x17500 E series body for fun. it was easy. time to start modding/building someserious lights!
