I've always kinda wondered what magic is inside one of these "smart" cell boosters. So when i spotted one (or at least part of one) on the trash heap, i couldn't resist grabbing it and tearing it apart for our amusement and ... education(?).
Here's a bit of information about it, right from the source:

A couple of weeks ago I got this cheap little USB rechargeable flashlight.
On my initial look a it, the charging didn't seem to be working.
Time to tear it apart and find out what's going on inside.
Here's where the flash light came from: https://www.ebay.ca/itm/Mini-USB-Rechargeable-LED-Light-Flashlight-Lamp-Pocket-Keychain-Torch-Waterproof/362625362910 (it was cheaper when I bought it, though...)

A buddy at work tossed this LED controller my way after it stopped working.
Will this be a repair video or a teardown?
