Arc AAA solder question

tygger · Jul 29, 2003

i've used my ARC LE so much my positive contact has worn down considerably. since i don't know much about soldering what type of solder should i use and how much to restore the contact. i think i've used it every day for about a year now. love this light.
thanks

Here's directions from Peter Gransee, Mr. ARC himself. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
I'd use rosin core solder, available at radio shack and hardware stores. Basically, you just heat what's already there and touch the fresh solder to the blob. Only a tiny bit is needed. If you need a new foam ring, send a SASE to Arc for free ones.
