1. Cut off the end of the laser with big scissors, limb cutter, etc
2. take a screwdriver. etc and bang it into the section with the button!
it should come out or *fly* out

You can actually just twist the front cap off. Heres a vid someone made of it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4o-0hQa9sss&watch_response

The module should press out.

Why not just leave the battery cover behind and tape the button down?

Does DX ship the 5mw to the US?

dx will ship a 5mw to the usa

if you buy the new wish cr2 powered one from dx, you can easily remove the module. no banging or damaging it.

large pic warning!

that is after removing the tube on mine. that outer ring can be screwed out, then the module simply falls out.

the module next to housing:

here is said laser: http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.10092

if you have a pen style, good luck getting the module out. there should be plenty of tutorials on that though

it was just demonstrational video... driver will come out with module.. but the best solution was mentioned above... just remove the battery section and tape the button down or whatever....
