My A3 should arrive tomorrow. Think I won't have a problem with the spacing, but will see.
Just received my GX25A3 and already having a problem with it
I put some Eneloops inside, light turns on but start flickering (on all light-mode), after a few second it went off, and didn't turn back on. Have those Eneloops now on charging.
Took some new Duracell alkaline. Lights turns back on. But still flickering, works on low and mid- only high for a few seconds and my A3 turns off again- won't come back on, on those batteries.
Then I took some Duracell 2450mah rechargeable batteries, no flickering and light works on all light-modes. But after twisting some times it goes off again would turn back on but few seconds later goes back off again.
This light comes straight out-of the packaging. What can be the problem??? :shrug:
This is now the second time I have issues with a Eagletac light.
EDIT: have tried other eneloops that normally are in my Fenix TK41 (which runs fine on those batteries(they do have some runtime on them so not 100% fully charged)) and the A3 runs a little bit longer on those, but still after 30-40seconds it goes off and won't turn back on.
When I have the light off and turn it on low there is some sort of flash
Mine came bezel down too, but need lots of pressure with mine to put it bezel down in the holster. I use it bezel up because I don't want to break/rip the holster.Accessories. The press shots all have the lens up, but the holster is actually designed for Lens-Down. The light fights more snugly this way, and everything is protected.
I've had a chance to compare my A3 with the A6 at night. Using my TK35 as the reference,I would rank them SX25A6 at 10...TK35 at 9...GX25A3 at 8 for spill brightness and throw.
Since I have both I couldn't resist trying a hybrid version. I put the SX head on the GX and it made a compact light with the 30 sec low voltage flash.
Question...if I use 3x14500 in the A3 body driving the A6 head, would I end up with the ultimate 1000 lumen stubby with reduced run time ?

I don't think you should try that, you'll be exceeding the max operating voltage of the A6.
Anyone know when the S5310 from Zebra is supposed to be out?
The simple fact that I have to use two hands to change modes on the Eagle simply makes me gasp.
If only Zebralight would get some production going and make some smooth reflector options or throwers.
My wife told me she didn't like my flashlight addiction, now I have no wife.Perfection! Another $100. My wife is going to kill me shortly...
