Hey all,
I just got a great deal off of craigslist for a Mole Tweenie II Solarspot Type 4821, but I'm new to Moles (other lights are Arri/CoolLights) and the wiring inside doesn't seem quite smartly done. Right now the two main power cables (the ones wrapped in white woven fabric) stick directly out to the side of the socket, this means that they rest in the long metal groove along the outer edge. The problem I see arising is that when the knob is turned to move the light from flood to spot, these wires rub along side the metal casing and seem to be fraying slightly.
Is the placement of these wires wrong? If you own a tweenie II where do these white cloth coated wires lie on yours? Should I just open it up and see if I can move them down?
Additionally the fresnel lens rattles in the fixture, do you think I can just force those metal tabs to hold it better? Any advice on cleaning that lens too?
Much thanks as always for any help given.
