Hi veryone, this is my first post here.
I recently bought a Cree C3 2xAA (With P4) From DX and it worked perfectly for all the time. Until one day I accidentaly dropped it from my desk and it didnt turn on anymore.
I tested the switch with an voltimeter, it works fine. Then i tested the flashlight body's conductivity and it was fine. The problem is on the Led emitter, but I'm unable to twist it off and disarm it.
Here are some pictures, if anyone could help me. This is my first flashlight and I have spent over $20 USD, it might not sound too much in the US, but in my country 20 bucks is the salary of 2 days of work.
My Cree C3 Flashlight. Wont work anymore :mecry:
The LED emited seems to be fine.
I Don't think it's burnt...
I was able to twist of the switch, but not the LED.
It works, i tested it.
You can see the marks when i was attempting to twist it off
I did this after the flashlight stopped working, trying to disarm the led.
I also tried putting some aluminium, if the problem was the conductivity. It did not work.
I also tried to connect to battery in several ways, with wire and nothing worked. Please help! If anybody know what is the problem tell me what to do now... I miss some light.
Thanks.
