Raidfire spring issue.

[WadeF]

Tonight I went to charge my AW 18650 in my Raidfire and when I took out the battery the spring came out with it! This was the spring on the back of the light engine.

I took the light apart and was able to solder the spring back on and the light works fine again. Not sure how well I did with the solder job and I hope it stays in place. Kinda scary to think it might come off again and shift over and short out the light/battery.

Wow.. Sorry to hear about that, IMO at this price point, that type of a problem shouldn't have even occured. Great throw though considering the diameter.

if you use some solder flux or solder paste it will stuck there forever.

I think that's what I used. Some kinda flux stuff. hehe. I'm still a bit of a n00b with soldering.
