I got a 17500 with an XP-G2 a few weeks ago and the ramping went straight from ~15 lumens to the full 300, so I decided to open up the pill to try the "paper washer" solution, but the circular metal plate won't fit back into the plastic piece. Any suggestions? If I could get the QTC to work properly this would be by far my favorite light.
Ive never had a 17500 sized pill but all the others are just a press fit. Line it up correctly and push.
let us know how it works out for you.
To file it defiantly might take off a bit too much - gentle is probably better.I would defiantly try filing it.
Adjustable Night Patrol models utilize a rheostat which is far more reliable than a qtc.
