So I ordered a Nitecore MH20 and it arrived 3 days ago. I've been using it very frequently since, especially on turbo mode. I've probably had it on high/turbo for over an hour without a battery charge, ever. The 3400mah battery from Nitecore (EASTSHINE dealer) came charged according to the blinking light battery gauge meter around 80% or so it seemed... 3 blinks... 6 blinks.. (not sure how the second flash amount exceeded 4... (.400mah) perhaps I've been reading the meter wrong. However after such prolonged usage without ever charging it, last night before using it for 45+ minutes on turbo/high, it showed 3 blinks... 4 blinks. Now this morning it shows 3 blinks... 1 blink. Am i to really believe it has 3.1v out of 3.4v left on the battery??
Also, what REALLY concerns me is that the UI totally changed now. I only dropped it once last night from about 6ft in my front yard on dirt/grass, and even after it fell, it keeped working just fine. It would go through the 5 modes, moonlight->turbo perfectly and everything was cool. Until this morning after more usage it seems to have broken. When I full click it on, it only blinks once and as soon as I let go of the switch it turns off. I can play with it to get it to go into moonlight mode, but it will not 'half click' and step up through the modes. Only Moonlight jumps to turbo instantly. Strobe keeps coming on accidently at times, and full clicks don't always turn the flashlight on. Its like every other or every third works. Is my battery just totally dead? (Its charging now) I would think the UI would remain the same with a low battery... or is it broken?
Any words of encouragement will certainly put my mind at ease for the next 3-5 hours while it charges. Thanks!
