Welcome to the tear down of the Lomi Massage Gun! It is your average 30 dollar massage gun from Walmart. I was excited to figure out how something so uniquely shaped on the outside would look on the inside.
TOOLS:
- Small Phillips Head Screwdriver
To start, I observed six screws on the outside of the gun and unscrewed all of them. The massage gun popped right open, and I was able to carefully take out all of the parts.
Turns out, there are not that many parts inside, making the outside more complex than the inside.
PARTS:
- 3 Different Plastic Massage Heads
- 7 Small Metal Screws
- 1 Massage Control Board (AKA Motherboard)
- 1 Micro USB Battery
- 1 DC Motor
- 1 Silicone Power Button
- 1 Massage Gun Plastic Shell
DESIGN CHOICES
- The massage heads are interchangeable using a Push-and-Pull Mechanism. This allows for ease of use, reliable products, cost effectiveness, and any other push-and-pull head can be inserted into the gun.
- The Massage Control Board was secured in place at the top of the gun by slipping between two plastic ledges that held it. This was interesting because the battery and motor were really heavy, and would crush the motherboard if it was on the bottom.
