Knog PWR Rider 450 Lumen - Teardown

Smontaggio

Introduzione

The lamp stopped working after it fell. I found no other guide to open it so I tried my own way.

The way to open it is from the lens, but I was not able to remove it without damaging it.

The lens broke by trying to remove it because of the latch there is.

I also broke the o-ring because I first thought there was a hidden screw behind the rubber part of the lamp, but there was not.

For now, I don't have a solution to remove the lens safely. But I managed to place it back on with hot glue.

    • I was not able to remove it without breaking it. It has two latches on it's sides. On the picture, the O-ring is also broken while testing another way of opening it.

    • I managed to force open it (and break the latching parts) by using flat head screwdriver and opening picks.

    • Remove the 2 screws (the ones that are NOT near the led)

    • You can now pull from the red side, the whole assembly will come out.

    • The soldering tabs for the battery are very easily broken. In my case it was the part that caused the lamp to not turn on (although charging and programming was fine)

    • Do the steps in reverse order to mount the lamp.

    • If required, use hot-glue to hold the lens

    • Do not put hot-glue in-between the lens and the LED
