Hello. I have a Hollis LED15 canister light. The light is ridiculously dim. Almost uselessly dim.

It has been this way for awhile. I was looking into the light head and noticed the LED is brown with dark spots on it. I am assuming that the LED got overheated and burnt somehow. Especially since the light is supposed to be 1000 lumens.

Does anybody know if it is possible to buy a new LED and solder/reflow it into the light? Has anyone done a LED swap on a primary light before?

Thanks in advance if anybody has any tips. I would love to put off buying a new light for a few months.
