Broken Lens :(
 
Hello, I broke my lens in my stream light tlr-1s last week and I can't get the thing completely apart. I took all the glass out and the rubber seal out and emailed them because it looked like it might have been glued in there, and sure enough they glued the threads. So my question is what is the best way to get it apart without damaging it. I figure I'll have to heat it up some how maybe to loosen the glue then thread it out but what would be the best way to do so? Thanks

I have a TLR-1 the same thing happen to me. I emailed them and they sent me a new front bezel with the glass already installed.

Heat the threads with a heat-gun slow and carefully from all sides. This will destroy the glue. Use a vice.

Thanks for the reply's, streamlight said they'd replace or fix it for me to just send it to them so I'll do that. I did try heating it both with a heat gun and in boiling water and neither idea worked. My next idea was to use a vice and heat again but just decided to send it back.
