So everything about my miter saw is perfect except for one thing.... the laser. I watch a few youtube channels and they too were of the same opinion. I searched high and low for a solution and decided to make something myself. This modification requires wiring, soldering and cutting of original wires so be aware of that before downloading this. Additionally you will need to buy a few electronics to get started. All electronics fit in the factory locations and you will not be able to tell that this mod was done. Additionally the led switch is used to power the LED. Buck Converter to step down voltage to ~7volts https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07SJFTD7F/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 LED Chip https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01DBZJCMC/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1 Small gauge wire to extend original wiring. pictures show the led in use and the laser module you will be replacing. Basically disconnect the led module and wiring all the way to the switch. There is a converter that is wired inline for the laser, that needs to be removed and replaced with the amazon buck converter. solder wires to led and push into 3d printed part. wiring is straightforward from there. test voltage from buck converter and adjust to ~7volts. I will do my best to work on some pictures to show how to install it but for now this is all i got for you. Enjoy.
