What's wrong with the A2 ?
Its been a while with SF but I have two choices. What should I do?
1. Have faulty Black A2 returned unrepaired (spares no longer available)
2. SureFire 'destroy' my Black A2 and send me a new EDCL2
Is a faulty - but mint condition Black A2 worth more than a new EDCL2? Advice appreciated.

Yes, guts can be taken out and installed into other body.
You only need to be really carefull with those tiny black ratining legs on top. The best way is to use a heatgun to soften them a bit (they are really stiff) and pry it with a screwdriver or similar.
Then gentile tap from the back (inside of the tube) with a pin punch will do the magic.

Is that on the ring, or not ?
This is a fair option, but would mean robbing another A2 - which are in short supply in the UK as it is - and it would be criminal to render another A2 useless....
Its inside under the lamp - but not able to see it without taking it to bits - which I did not do as returned it to SF for evaluation.
Without spares, all A2's are on borrowed time.
I was specifically asking if you happen to know if the damaged part is on the "onion ring" because many replacements for those were produced by a variety of modders.
Understood. Its the regulator that has failed - the LED ring is fine.
