Does anyone know if the R123 batteries can be charged safely in the nano charger (such as the one that came with the Raw), as my power supply popped as soon as I plugged the £$%@#&$+ thing in /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mecry.gif

 

[Cones]

Please tell me you did not use the one that came from TW in the UK? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif

As it is only rated at 110V AC 60HZ. No wonder it went POP!

Unlike the one I got from AW that is rated at 100-240 50/60 HZ /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Can you use the 12V Card charger lead instead?

I think the Nano will work as these are all protected cells. But NEVER charge Lithium Ion cells unattended. That would be asking for trouble. I use a £25 fire safe to charge mine in. Peace of mind!

Hello Charlie,

my two Lion Cubs 027/100 black and 066/100 black arrived. Both LCs were sealed.
Unfortunately, the LC 027/100 black is faulty. The PCB is loose. The PCB is pushed by the battery to the lens.
Through this the switch doesn't work. Without battery the switch “works”. One hears clearly clicking.

After insert the battery the lamp cannot be used. Either flashes the lamp or it has full brightness.
Turning off isn't possible.

In addition, it is considerably darker than the other LC. However, this is independent of the defect.

I am very much disappointed.
The LC 066/100 black is for a friend. This lamp is all right.
Now I waited for a long time for my LC, and she is defective.

Can you first deliver the middle part with electronics to me?
I return my part at the same time.

Torch,
I don't know if you have already. but you might want to email and / or PM concerning this situation so it will get his full attention, to fix the light.

the charger that came with MY RAW is an R123 charger.. had some donut magnets to make the CR2 long enough to charge and i've charged R123s in it fine.. it's a nice slow charge for the bigger batteries.. 150ma i've heard but never measured.. it does take numerous hours and a full charge is not when the light first turns green.. if i leave it on over night they come off like 4.15V which is perfect for my tastes.

Hello TorchWolf,

I apologize for the negative experience. Rest assured all Cubs were tested - with battery in place - before being shipped to Tactical Warehouse, who subsequently shipped the international-bound lights to yet a third party for individual foreign shipping.

It sounds as though the board is out of position and when pushed up *into* position by the battery, the switch is coming into partial contact with the internal wall of the control module housing. This is not a fault with the circuit.

Please ship the light back to me, at my expense, for examination and servicing. I will reposition the board so as to remain in place regardless and ensure all is working once again before returning the Cub to you, also at my expense.

Again I am sorry this happened. Next time feel free to contact me directly so I can take care of any issues more quickly. You may reply to this via e-mail (in my profile) to gain my attention sooner, as there is another flashlight forum that I have been frequenting (and helping to administrate) more than CPF lately, and thus I may not see your publicly posted complaint.

Thank you.

Received LH Nat 69. Very happy with the light, great output and I like that it will be so easy to change the led when they get better and more efficient.

Thanks to all involved.

Hi!
Wanted to ask if somebody else gor their light with a scratch along the upper part of the batt. compartment near the joint with the body?
Dan said that all the LC have this scratch, is it really so?
The scratch is not very deep - you don't see the aluminium, but it is visible...

 

[diggdug13]

Yep! I do I just checked. it looks like someone scraped a line of the anno, might be for conductivity? dunno but I got it to.
