    brinkmann dual led/halogen rechargeable spotlight - repairable

    The gun is not recharging. The light is very dim.

    I'd say either the battery pack or the charger is toast. Both can be replaced.

    Looks like the brinkman boys made their money and moved to the Caribbean
    Why don't you look at scangrip

    I had the old halogen one, first of all it's not really made to be taken apart, and I remember breaking part of it doing that. I could have gotten it back together, but I couldn't source a battery that between cost and shipping made it worth to repair.

    Replaced the battery on my dual led light. Found replacement battery at Battery+.

    How much did that cost with the shipping? With my halogen one, I think it was $20 or $22 to get the battery, for a light that only cost $30 when I bought it and never liked it that much.

    They have several stores in my area so no shipping cost. Battery was around $16-$20 if I remember correctly.

    Yeah, but I can get a $12, 190 lumen LED flashlight that's plastic with a rubber nose, and if the batteries stop working, I just unscrew the bottom and put new ones in.

    A Scangrip is worth the admission, but something like a Coast HX5 pocket light isn't too shabby to have around for quick inspection either.

    Same here. Brinkmann Dual LED - purchased replacement battery at Interstate Batteries for $12 and it works perfect again.
