I hope it does loosen off. The heavier the payload the easier it opens too. I'm gonna try a UV torch next time out, but using sunlight alone, the niteglow is underwhelming. I was hoping it would act similar but be potentially better than the LED hack that's popular at the moment. It isn't at all.

Did you try charging it with your headtorch, that should work?

I didn't, I did se that's supposed to work but in all honesty, forgot about it.

It looks like there's hope for the UV light

That's what I was expecting with sunlight. Mega, what was it like casting it out? Can you see it when out there?
