I fear in disassembling it, I may have done further damage...

My Wicked Laser E2 worked poorly with the safety pin needing to be held and in just the right position to fire. Took the end cap apart and a copper bit that bridges two of the screws was broken. I tried a solder repair but no joy. Looking for any solutions from a new end cap to anything...

Well, it's a bit of a surprise but I put some fresh batteries in after giving everything a chance to dry out and the damn thing works! I thought for sure I had killed the driver just with the high impact force I used trying to get the crusty battery out! Very happy as I love the size and...

Yeah, gave that a go too, now I have a piece of bubble wrap stuck down in it (used it to brace the electronics from the pushin). :) Trust me guys, if it was easy I'd already be there!

Well the cap that screws on is screwed off. The part that he uses to leverage the module out is not present on mine. Welcome to the point :) My E2 appears to be different than the one in the video...

I don't see how to get around the optics. I tried getting a very small drive head in between the body and the optics but it wouldn't move, even after I tried warming it up with the heat gun. So not sure how to proceed. Also, don't have any spare parts as my only lasers are this and an old...

Yes, the link on the page is now working. However, it appears my E2's construction differs from that shown. So no luck on my part getting mine apart.

Tried this as well, even tried warming things up with a heat gun. No joy, not even any movement from the front side when trying.

No such luck with my E2. Anyone know how else it might come apart? I fear it's beyond saving at this point with the shock forces I've put on it. If I can't do it myself does anyone know of a shop that could repair it?

Forgive the zombie thread, I borked my E2 but good by leaving some batteries in and causing some corrosion. Looking to take everything apart to try to salvage things. It's already broken, so no problem in just digging right in! The video link is dead so if someone knows the secrets to taking...
