My O-Like 500mW greenie needs repair of some sort, I put fully charged battery in it and the beam/dot is really weak and when I point it downwards towards ground it doesn't it work at all unless I shake it a little bit, it seems to only work when I point up or forwards(parallel to ground), idk anything about DIY repair so I'd feel most comfy just sending it someone for repair, anyone know where or who I could send it to for repair? Thanks

You need to provide a little more information...

Specifically where are you located (good idea to put that in your profile so everyone can see)?

Also what model are you talking about? (The crown head upgrade?)

Anyoneee? If it helps at all I'm pretty sure it's the spring that touches the negative side of the battery, bent or not pushing it against the tail cap hard enough? Any help here would be appreciate.

I live in Houston and I have a few laser pointers from 250 mW to 50 mW that need repair. They were all bought from dealers in China. All worked fine but now are doing nothing. One needs the on/off module re soldered to the laser module. I would send with postage and pay a reasonable price. My eye sight is not what it used to be, or I would attempt it myself. I see by reading your reply that you do repairs. Thanks for the attention, Raymond (Rocky222)

I have the crown 500mW also :)
Sometimes when you dont fully screw the
tailcap it doesnt allow full current to flow,
so make sure the tailcap is fully screwed !
