Just looking for input from you all. I had an S10RII baton that died on me after taking it off the charger, so I returned it because thankfully I was still within my amazon return period by a few days. So I went with a s1 because after doing research I assumed the S10RII died due to the built on charging.
This morning I had my s1 on moonlight mode and it shut off for no reason. I've never dropped or abused it, and I've had it for 2 weeks. I thought I might be half asleep since it is early by me, so I turned it back on in moonlight, and it shut off a few minutes later, and all I was doing was tail standing it on a counter. Since then I've had it on moonlight for a half hour and counting and it's good, but I am very concerned. What if it goes out in a critical situation?
I love the light. I love the UI, the size, the magnet, and the power. I showed it off to some friends last night and they were blown away. I really don't want to return it, but for a $50 light, it should NEVER randomly shut off. If I do return it I'm done with olight. The S10RII was a fluke I thought, but now I think it's poor quality by the brand.
I've done countless hours of research on what is the best EDC light, and the s1 fits my needs, but shutting off randomly is a big deal. What do you all suggest? Stick with the s1 and hope it doesn't happen again or find a new edc? If a new edc, what would be the closest thing to a s1 but more reliable?
