With all the talk around here about A2's, I decided that it was time to acquire one for my collection. It truly is a great light for all the reasons already listed. I have one problem, the incandescent part has completely ceased to operate. For the first three weeks there were no problems, however in the last week the bulb would sometimes not come on when the tail was pressed all the way or screwed down all the way, however mostly when pressed. It seemed if I threaded the tail a little bit, it would come back on. Last night the bulb blew and I thought maybe the bulb was just flakey, however the new bulb doesn't work at all. The filament of the new one is intact as far as I can tell and the LEDs do brighten when the tail is pressed to stage II, so I would assume the circuitry is still good.
So what do you guys suggest? Is it time to call Surefire or do you guys know something maybe I don't? I really love the light and can't wait to get it up and runnig again.
PS - I did change the batteries also, the new ones had 3.3 V in them, so I know they were good.
