Quoted from flashinstinct:Back to cylinder sizing.....anyone think my canister is out of proportion?
From what i can see it looks about right... but hard to tell with just a couple pics.

Quoted from flashinstinct:In order to install the new bracket, the old one will have to be removed. To get the current bracket and screw out you will need to remove the top of the can. You will need a flat head screwdriver to pry it open. Try to find a spot around the can that you believe would be easiest to nudge the edge of a flat screw driver in. Twist the screwdriver to try and pry the cap up slightly, do not use and up down motion, make sure to twist/rotate like changing gears on a bicycle handle. Once you see movement, move around the cap slowly by using the same technique. Do not try to lift it all at once in a swift movement. Once the cap is off you will have to remove the glue from the nut in order to get the screw off. The cap is really tight, at this point to avoid any other mishaps, I would ask that you sand the inner edges of the cap to make the fit less tight before you try putting it back on.
Just a couple observations... my cap came off quite easily as it wasn't completely flush, so a flat screwdriver blade fit in quite easily and I was able to gently pry in several spots and came off in about 10 seconds. I'm not going to sand, as it goes back on fairly easily as well, but not loose by any means.
As for the glue on the nut... I left it on, as the screw came out without having to remove the glue. Bonus is now the nut is still glued in place and once I get the new bracket, I can put it back in quite easily without even having to fuss with the nut. In fact, if you're a risk taker, you might be able to remove and replace the screw without even removing the cap. I'm pretty sure I could have done so with mine, but now that the top is off, I can at least visualize the nut while screwing it back in to make sure it doesn’t get knocked loose or anything.
Quoted from flashinstinct:Nut falls at bottom of can and fries all LEDs. In other words don't be a risk taker
Well, I’d assume this wouldn’t be done with power on (or mod even installed yet). And you’d know if the nut was on the screw or otherwise it wouldn’t tighten. Don’t get me wrong... I’m NOT recommending it, and am typically never a risk taker. Definitely don’t want my comments to be misconstrued, so good advice.
But I still contend that the glue should not have to be removed if others are glued like mine.
Lit mine up with a battery and looks beautiful! Though, there is one tube that is noticeably brighter than the others and it happens to be front and center. Looking at it, the LED doesn’t look like it’s covered with the orange goo (for lack of a better word) as much as the other tubes. Not sure I’ll notice it once mounted in the game... will have to wait and see.
