Hi CPFers,
Just want to throw this out there: LED LENSER is...an interesting brand. Bought a M1 multi-mode 1 cell C123 torch back in 2012, and it always had finnicky UI (would not change modes like instructions said). You're supposed to click twice fast for low, and 3 times fast for strobe, but it took several trials to get to any of them.
So in 2016/2017 I requested a replacement under LL's 5 year warranty. Got a new light, this time, great UI, clicks the mode just the way it's supposed to.
Then, just the other day I click to turn on, light won't turn on. So I switch out the cell for another cell. And another. And another. Long story short, it appears the LED is dead, in less than 2 years of VERY LIGHT use.
This is not a reliable light. Which is a shame because I used to have their 3x AAA T1 light that seemed to be fairly reliable.
I emailed LL again today about the dead LED and am waiting to hear back what they say. We will see!
