I finally got around to modding my Avalir(2017 red/black)...but I was torn on whether I'd change this one or my Sentria 2. I prefer the look of this late model Avalir but prefer the handle of the Sentria ( big hands prefer larger handle). Unfortunately , the metal was cut too far and the 2 speed switch didn't cover it. But, I'm happy with the results...consider this modified!

So was it just a matter of wiring in the switch or were there further internal modifications needed to make it work? Also, did you cut the case of the Avalir to accommodate the switch or did you just transfer the Ultimate G Diamond's case over? I don't know that I'd ever attempt this but it's an interesting mod, nonetheless.

I used the Avalir top case....I thought of using a Diamond....but where I was doing this with a buddy helping....I didn't have that....kinda wanted the original production date still on the casing too....so I used the original. my buddy had removed the switch etc from a non working Diamond model. Took off the fuse/wire in the first photo....screwed in the circuit 'board' with 2 screws that held it on originally...plugged it in where the removed fuse/wire went !!
