Nice. If there will be any pictures, I will be interested to see them.
If you contact user Ultralume, he might know how to disassemble it. The older 165/2 model has screws on the top, and by the looks of
this picture, there is glue holding it on, as well. So I would guess the 165/3 model has just the glue, but I don't know for sure.
If you do want to try it on 240V AC power, you could try it on low mode. The resistor might get hot after a while, but I think for a short test it would be fine, and the lamp wouldn't be overdriven.
