just cut it off and wire direct to the battery or use a lawn mower connector, if possible put an inline fuse in on the positive wire

Cut off the connecter and put spade connecters on always work for me

i agree they are shit for the money.

 

the first thing i do when i buy a lightforce lamp is rewire the fecking thing.

 

i do away with the switch aswell, ive got it so as i just touch 2 wires together alot less hassel than swiches and its silent aswell.

The connector into the lithium battery is as bad as the cigar plug and the hard coily cable is shit. I replaced the whole lot.

Stripped mine out and re-soldered the connections. Seems fine so far ;-)

solder is no good always use block connecters so if it breaks you can fix it

Connector block doesn't fit inside the handle or the male fag lighter and won't connect the wires to the fittings in either.

 

As for being no good...must've been my imagination!!!
