Anyone taken an Edelux apart before? In the past year the mounting lug that fixes to the back of the housing has developed play so annoys the hell out of me by vibrating. Assume it's the machine screw that has worked loose somehow:
Contacted Schmidt direct and they suggested I shouldn't take it apart as the electronics at the back are secured in with epoxy (I need to remove to gain access to screw) and just recommended putting epoxy around the lug/body to prevent the vibration. Understand this will work, but just curious if anyone has taken one fully apart as I don't want to destroy it as it's given me 10 years of hassle-free service (first one did leak & fail though). See below for reference:
