It was easy to open and put back together. Their was a ton of dust in their which is probably why it burnt out. I was thinking about getting some canned air to clean my other one out before it does the same thing. Has anyone else here ever used canned air on their lights. I've heard of people having issues with their AI Sols malfunctioning. The warranty is good for 2 years in the Kessils and I did manage to find my receipt last night. It's been 11 months and 3 weeks since date of purchase.
