Got a new Raw AL, and HIGH only works with Russian roulette. Gotta twist it real hard, and sometimes it flickers afterwards.
When measured on a TMMS, I've found that the tail body is bigger than the PCB ring it's supposed to hit. There's a big chamfer on the inside of the battery tube opening, leaving a narrow tube. Without that inside chamfer. the tail body would probably engage. So basically the tube hits the outer PCB dielectric surface, not the plated copper.
On my Raw NS, there's an area where the plated thru hole has a ring around it, that's the only place that one makes contact, I can see it by heavy wear marks. The same location is significantly etched back on my Raw Al, there's no wear marks at all anywhere on the ring.
Just looking for suggestions on what to do. Search led to no results. If anyone is unclear on what I've described above, I could take a picture tomorrow.
TIA...
