Excitement turned to disappointment after opening my Mi7 package which arrived today from China, bought and shipped from Gearbest. The light turns on intermittently, but mostly does not turn on at all.
I first tried the included AA alkaline battery (which tested at full voltage,) and then tried a fully charged Xtar brand 14500. The light is clearly defective, and the video I took shows what often happened if the light decided to turn on: It would flicker at low intensity and then turn off. (Hope my video works, I only just joined vimeo in order to share it.)
I've contacted Gearbest via their online support ticket option, and hope they are as good about customer satisfaction as they claim on their website. Any additional advice for getting this replaced by Gearbest would be helpful.
