It definitely seems like a defective part. With potted lights it generally doesn't matter if water gets in, everything is sealed. I've seen Elzettas disassembled and reassembled underwater on numerous occasions with no problems.

Huh, I guess I know the recipe. I have written my minds on clear lens installation issue from @policija.lt (yes, I am a LEO). Response came next day

I had the flickering problem with my Alpha. I emailed them without getting a response. After a few days I called, and someone picked up immediately and asked me to send in the light. The light was in transit back to me, fixed, when I finally received a response back from them via email.
This is the great thing about these forums: as a group we now know that phone calls work better for getting help with your Elzetta.

I'm not sure I followed your post.
You contacted somebody other than Elzetta, and you learned you were installing the optic incorrectly?
or
You sent an e-mail to Elzetta from your LEO department e-mail address, and they responded.
I will now admit that I sent an e-mail to Elzetta from my GMail account asking an Alpha low mode pulse question 6 business days ago (Nov. 23)....and have not received a response. I sent it to the info@elzetta address, which is the only one I've found on their website. I've also been monitoring my spam folder to ensure I don't miss it due to filtering. My guess is that I won't be receiving one within the next week, if ever.
It appears Elzetta is following Surefire's lead of ignoring incoming e-mails.

I think using the police email clinched it, but I could be wrong.

I just picked up one of the older Elzettas with a M60F and I am quite impressed. The light is very compact but solid.

Personally for me AVS head is a way to go. P60 head just do not pass my aesthetical filter
The AVS head is very badass! I have one on a Bravo and one on a Charlie.

I am serious. One soviet airplane creator has told a good phrase: a properly designed airplane is beautiful. I guess the same rule applies to any device:

So I'm thinking of getting the B133 and I'm wondering what the tint is like on the high output head? I'm really wanting something on the perfect white side. I don't like warm. So something like the Surefire G2X. Is that what the Elzetta has? Or is it clearly warm?

Some posts back, a member compared the Alpha 1st edition and the Alpha 2nd edition. Not as warm. The Bravo's with AVS head are on the warmer side and not white.

Hmm. Does anyone know the K value?
So it's definitely not white?

If your talking about the AVS head, no, not white.
I would estimate about 4100K. More neutral.

Wow! So the AVS head is noticeably warm/yellowish tint?
