You can return it to UK and they will replace it free of charge. Their customer service is top notch.

Don't bother. You can buy a whole new C8 eLED from Scuba Toys for $75 or just the module for $55.

I did the same thing, and to boot I had a battery pack that leaked acid all over everything. If you've rinsed and dried, that's about the best you can do. I sent my cell phone thru the washer and did the open and dry thing and it worked after a couple days. But no luck with the UK. I wasn't aware that UK would do a replacement for user caused damage.

How do they know you're not the original owner? They've never asked me any questions when i needed to send lights back.
