I have a new L2 and I inserted the XP-G pill from my Javelin to try it out. It works fine with my AW buttom top 18650 but not with the flt top.
It's strange because if I insert the pill and hold it down with my thumb it turns on fine. Plenty of spring pressure on top of battery. In fact if I just insert the pill and let it sit on the battery with clicky on the led turns on.
If I screw on the bezel, however, the ed my blink on or off but I cannot find any tension by screwing or unscrewing the bezel that works dependably. It either doesn't work at all or when on the sightest shake turns it off.
Any solution? My button top is needed in my MC-E so I only have a flat top to use.
Ok ~ correction. It happens with the button top too. The pill is loose so I think that may be the problem.
Is there any reason I shouldn't wrap the pill in al foil so it jams in tightly? I have no copper tape and I'm anxious to try it ou tonight.
