Does the end cap unscrew? At the end where the flex goes in.

Try unscrewing by grabbing around the dimples near top and twisting against bottom section, that is the normal twist point.

Nup. Nothing moves. Except the skin ripping off my hands.

Took rubber gloves and a lot of strength but got it. Decided to put a video on YouTube to maybe help any other poor soul that nearly goes to war with China after they couldn't open their light fixture. Thanks for your help.

Yes they aren't the best of quality. Glad you got it apart though.
