  • Further teardown of the tip seems impractical, but that's okay: we have eyes everywhere, thanks to some slick X-ray imaging from our pals at Creative Electron.

  • Get a load of that tiny spring-loaded tip, and the two emitters buried within the shaft.

  • Just for kicks, we also imaged the itty bitty folded logic board, and the Lightning Connector and cap.

  • Fortunately this was captured when the Pencil was still intact, so you can still see the connector neatly soldered to its little ribbon cable. It's a thing of beauty (at least until the day you need to repair something).
