Just got my new Sidewinder in the mail the other day, I like it but the battery cap O-ring is a bit large and a small part will squeeze out when the cap is tightened down obviously compromising it's waterproof seal. I can carefully press it in when screwing down but it will take several tries and I still don't trust the seal. Has anyone else had this issue? It's not enough to send it back as I will probably find a proper sized O-ring for a few pennies.

Give Streamlight a call they have good CS. I think they will send you the correct oring. I been wanting to get Sidewinder 2 for a while now as it takes both AA and 123.
