So it's theoretically possible, but no one's done it, or it's not possible. Who knows? Anyway, thanks for posting. The only way I think I'd find out is by trying it. I'm surprised there aren't more concrete references to "rooting" (please see my note!) an Aura 6" on the net. Which makes me suspect no one's actually done it. Shame, because it's on sale and the light looks a lot better than the Glo's in the vids I've seen.
