G&P 2-mode tailcap, 6P?

Curious...
Anyone have this tailcap?
Can it be modded?... de-pop the strobe circuit and replace it with an resistor, and effectively make it a 2-mode (Lo/Hi) switch?

I have it. It's a battery-drainer. Other than that, no issues with mine. But some CPFers have mentioned reliability issues with the ones they have.

It's a G&P product. So don't expect too much from it.

I bought one a few weeks ago and it would only work as a momentary strobe.
Even if you pushed it until it "clicked" it still went off when you released it. It was not 2 modes of anything, only momentary strobe. I returned it.

This problem showed up when you used it with a single CR123 or dead batteries. At least that was my experience.
