| + | [title] Remove LED PCB |
|---|---|
| + | [* black] Removing the diffuser exposes the LED PCB. The edge of the WiFi board can also be seen with the antenna protruding. |
| + | [* red] Note the silicone adhesive on the tabs. You probably don't need to replace this with fresh adhesive, but if you do, make sure it's rated for high temperatures. |
| + | [* orange] On the LED PCB, you can see the white and colored LEDs. The PCB is a thermally-conductive aluminum material. |
| + | [* black] Around the edge of the bulb's case there is a plastic retaining ring attached by four Phillips-head screws. It's not necessary to remove this for further disassembly. |
| + | [* yellow] The LED PCB has a pin header that connects down into the WiFi board. A thermal adhesive pad holds the PCB to the metal bulb case. You can gently pry around the edge of the PCB until the adhesive releases, and the connector separates. |
| + | [* black] On my bulb, the PCB was not fully-seated on the thermal pad, potentially causing heat-related intermittent faults. |
