Ya know... it's not a huge issue, but though I've asked for some help on this from 4Sevens customer service and from David's e-mail, I have only received a single reply asking for confirmation of the problem, but no reply in recognition of my description of the problem, or of the photo of the threads, nor assistance in remediation. Perhaps they're just contemplating the issue and deciding what to do... or, perhaps the problem is more widespread than I am aware of... I really don't know... all I know is that since explaining the issue, I've gotten no further feedback from 4Sevens.
The threads on the non-clip side of my QAA were not cut to completion, so turning the head to turbo, when mounted on that side of the body, is very difficult - and turning to turbo when the head is mounted on that side is probably flattening the threads on my head. I'm not real happy about that.
So for the meantime, I'm not using the clip, nor using that end of the tube for mounting the head. Interestingly, the threads on my 123 body are quite fully completed on each end... but not on my AA body... the threads on one end stop short of completion and mounting the head on that side of the tube is problematic for turning to turbo mode. Enough time has passed since my last reply that perhaps I should contact 4Sevens again to ask about what's going on.
Overall, it should be obvious to any observing my many comments about this wonderful light that I am totally thrilled with it, overall. And I'm sure that 4Sevens will make good on what seems to be a fairly insignificant thread issue with my light. I'm just a little perplexed at the lack of any communication from them on this matter. :thinking:
