Well, how do you fix this? If you have a lathe, you could make a new one. Otherwise look for something like a toothpaste cap with a similar threading maybe. I assume 200mW pen is expensive, so paying ~$10 or less for getting a 5mW one in the same host to get the tailcap is not that bad of an option.

Where was the laser from? It looks like a generic style laser. What I mean is you could probably buy the same style in 5mW for way cheaper but the cap would be the same.

Tooth paste? The tail cap has to be able to conduct electricity to the metal host (case positive).

I also agree with buying a 5mW laser with the same host. I looked for a while, but this is the lowest price I could find...
