How to turn a Senkat GB LD into an open can version.
OK, I had this one in my flashlight mod. I tried using teflon tape to tighten up the thread slop in the module, but the tape became shredded and made its way down to the LD. It caused some damage to the coating on the LD window and made the LD unusable.
At first, I thought I had COD, but the damage looked to be only on the window. So, I carefully removed the top of the can and discarded it. I hooked up the LD again to power and it works fine.
Unfortunately, I did not take any photos of the beam prior to doing this little operation.
