I just picked up a G2X LE from optics planet on sale for what I thought was a pretty good deal. Since I'm planning on using this light as a WML, I'd like to disable the low mode. I've stripped the light down, but now am stuck. Here's what I've found:

You have to "cut " the traces on the circuit board to disable the low mode.

The G2X has two traces (I actually see 3, but I don't know what a trace even is so this is where I'm stuck). By cutting both traces, you remove the low mode. In this post, there's a "thingy" at 9 o'clock, one at 6 o'clock, and one at 3 o'clock connected to the contact.  Which ones are the traces?

Of course, someone posted a picture of their single mode G2X with "both traces cut" but it's been deleted. I just want to be sure I'm cutting the right traces before I do this.

Better yet, if someone who has a G2x pro could please post a picture of their circuit board from the bottom of the flashlight

Update: I cut one trace which stopped the flashlight from functioning properly. After reconnecting that trace, I proceeded to cut the other two visible traces which had no impact on the function of the light. bummer.
