Title: Emitter on Lost Gray won't stay in Post by: Owlfly on July 14, 2018, 04:34:06 PM I just bought a lost gray and so far I love it. But I am having some problems with the emitter/light piece coming out. It did not when I first got it, but it has recently become unstable and slides out whenever it is upside down. Is there a way to fix this?
Thanks! Title: Re: Emitter on Lost Gray won't stay in Post by: Obese Wan Kenobese on July 14, 2018, 10:49:06 AM Best to contact ultrasabers info to be sure. It may be that you just need to screw the emitter back in, or that you need to tighten a retention screw some place.

The LED is the piece that is not staying in.. Title: Re: Emitter on Lost Gray won't stay in Post by: Infinit01 on July 17, 2018, 06:03:21 PM Sorry about the wording, you are right. It is a bit vague. The LED is the piece that is not staying in.. I would contact US support for more info or help. May be something pretty easy, take pictures and send it to them along with your request.

That isn't an issue since US uses the blade or blade plug to hold the LED in the hilt.

There's no retention screw that I can see in the hilt for the module, only the blade retention screw. My module is snug and does not move at all, no matter if it's upside-down or even tapped on a table.

Oh and ^^^I never saw your Dorinian review I don't think, noticing one in your signature pic :P

Maybe, if I think my opinion is needed. |
