Hi other flashlight addicts.
I bought a Nitecore D4 last year and it has been a good charger, but about a week ago it started playing up while charging normal NiMh cells. It now stops charging after a minute or so and the LCD screen goes blank till you cycle the power...
I opened it up and found Q8 and R44 burned.
Q8 is marked A79TF and might be a SOT-23 P-Ch fet.
R44 was marked R500 (like others on the charging channels).
Anyone else got a dead D4 they'd like to discuss repair of ?
I have some photos.
