well, I have been hunting lost lumens on this flashlight to thsi flashlight, due to electrical resistance....
at first i replaced the thin and long switch spring with a hard, thick aftermarket one (see intl-outfdoor) and did a wire pass by.
Still performance was poor
So I bit the bullet and replaced the original forward click switch with a Convoy Hi-Amp FWD Click
The new switch is a lot larger in diameter and height, and would not fir on the original PCB.
So I did a PCB sandwich with a new 20mm board.
Luckily the tailcap has a large white spacer and removing it made me the needed height.
Then I made and added a locating washer out of a soda bottle cap
It worked...Combined with the spring mod, I gained 1/3 of the output (running a high amp BLF A6 Driver)
