Looking for Battery Cover for Cateye Rear Light

michaeld121@hotmail.com · Dec 12, 2006

I've just broken the battery cover for my Cateye Rear Light

I called the distributor & the covers aren't sold separately. It's
seems a bit of a waste to junk a perfectly good light because of this
one part - so I was wondering if anybody knows where I might be able to
get one, or has got a spare cover lying around (happy to pay P&P and a
sensible amount for it).

It's a TL-LD1000, which is one of the newish very bright LED lights,
see http://tinyurl.com/ymo4en. I think it takes the same cover as the
newer TL-LD1100.

Will it not respond to the superglue treatment ?

Or epoxy resin and tape?

If you email Cateye direct, I bet they'll help.

It'll be a see-through red cap that acts as a lens for one set of side LEDs.

Spot-on. I've got it fixed on at the moment with sellotape, but I
don't think it's going to last too long.
