I was so excited it was getting dark so my son and I could race with this new bag. This lasted about a minute before it started blinking and then eventually just stopped. I was so disappointed. But I wouldn't hold back! I disassembled the product and found a solution and now it works great. I'll be ordering a few more for my old hacker buddies, but I'll be sure to get them fixed first. What you need: aluminum foil, rubber glue, a small screwdriver (like from an eyeglass repair kit). Here's what you need. to do: 1) Take out the LED assembly (you can skip this step, but it's easier to see what's going on when it's not in your pocket). Be careful not to spill the beads. You have to remove it carefully. It is held in place with rubber glue. Use this small screwdriver to cut off the rubber adhesive while gently prying the device apart. 2) Unscrew and remove the cover, but leave the batteries in place for now. 3) You will see two metal leads on opposite sides of the battery case, but only one of them is necessary or "live". Take a small piece of aluminum foil and insulate which wire is "live" by touching the top of the battery and each wire individually. Only one of them closes the circuit and lights up the LED. Mark the "discharged" wire with a marker. 4) Once you have figured out which wire is "live" remove the 3 batteries (remember how they sat in the unit!). 5) You will notice that the plastic case of the battery has a small grommet coming out of the larger plastic case, gently pry this smaller grommet out (it should be loose enough which is the crux of the problem). according to the size of the existing wires. 7) Lay this foil wire along the outside "live" side of the wire as you slide the battery case back into the larger block, with a small foil overlapping the top edge. It is important that this slide is along the "Live" exit. It will be slightly firmer than when it was taken out. 8) Put the 3 batteries back into the device with the positive pole down. 9) Pull back the excess foil so it makes contact with the battery and the LED should light up. .10) Screw the lid back on and make sure the unit will catch fire even if slammed onto a table or thrown in the air as it must withstand that level of abuse in a hacker's bag. 11) If it passes this test, place the LED block back in the bag, note how it came out and reverse the process with rubber cement to ensure it stays in place. Let the rubber glue sit for a good 4 hours or so. 12) Enjoy your new awesome (and hopefully functional!) backlit backpack!
