Since someone always ask about it, here's another way to take it apart.
Looking from the top, find the two slits
Obtain a cheap set of tweezers and rest the legs onto the metal piece in the slits. Hold the light straight by putting the base in the head. Hold the tweezer as straight and centered as possible.
Gently whack the top of the tweezer. You only need to drive the tweezer about a centimeter, so start soft and gradually increase force. The module will punch out and fall.
To reassemble, drop the module into the light and use a dowel to hold against it. There are two flat sides on the two pieces. Align the two up and push the top piece into place by pushing it along the edge while holding the bottom piece in place with a dowel.
