I am wishing my laser didn't have that since I know I will never use it lol. I looked into pulling apart the tail cap and bridging it internally but its put together too tightly and I cant get it free.

I'll trade you tailcaps. :) I don't know how easy that would be, though.

Just FYI, thanks to everyone who helped round up my laser and get it to me. I received it Saturday and really like the pattern generating add-on. I am trying to disable the annoying aperture safety device that ends up closing at the wrong times.

Otherwise, loving it. I haven't put it on a LPM yet, but it easily burns anything with no effort.

The tail caps of JETLASERS Pl-Cs and a few other models had these tailcap pins too-- JL eventually made a pin that is small and you can just leave it in and forget about it- you may be able to make one yourself- as long as it fits snuggly and makes contact so the laser works you will be fine- a RCA plug with the outer parts removed made a good pin for the JLs- I just added a glob of JB Weld on the big end to make it eaier to get back out- also some headphone jacks are the same size-
all the above make more sense than taking apart the tailcap--
you may want to sell it someday to a buyer who likes the tailcap pin.

There are pins like that with a wired momentary switch for use as a gun sight too.
good luck- hope that this has been helpful--------Len

I like the RCA plug idea. I have a couple lying around that I am going to go destroy to see if I can get one to fit nicely. Thanks for the suggestion.

EDIT: Well, that took 5 minutes. I now have a nice perfect fitting plug in it from an RCA cable. Thanks again bro.

Sending a mail to kevin about the double laser :) maybe if i pay kevin i can get it from you :) Since i didn't order from this GB :) (Then he gets some money of the double sent lasers back also)

Also is sent the paypal of daftyetpunk to him, since he offered to pay for it.

Also alexuphinhea missed his package today at 2:00 PM. So it seems everything is kinda fixed now :beer:

greetings,

Yes, I did end up receiving the laser. Aside from all 3 labels being either wrinkled or off-cent, I am overall very happy with the laser. Good quality, bright, love the star-attachment. Thanks for the GB.

Yes, I am the last one to receive the laser. It has been 5 days that the laser is underway and it is still in Hong Kong. It has been moving around 3-4 FedEx buildings. :confused:

That sounds unusual. I am very surprised its still there.

Maybe they have to handle it differently since your gift is a 160W CO2 tube :p

EDIT: oh snap 500th post :wave:

Maybe someone at FedEx is taking some time off and messing everything up for us? :tinfoil: I ordered a new jacket from CA, that was shipped via fedex last week. Normally by regular priority mail packages take 2-4 days max to get to me... we're now on day five, and last tracking shows it being in texas... :wtf:

Wow, the sixth day went fast. Like I said earlier the laser has been in Hong Kong for 5 days but the last day it went thru Paris and Belgium in no time. It is even skipped by the customs. :)
The package has been delivered and sitting on my table at home.
I haven't opened it yet because I am at work now but pictures will follow.

I don't know if Kevin has added the gift in this second shipment.

My second shipment also had the gift so I guess it'll be included. It didn't contain a battery though.
