Won't click anymore. I think the internal spring is jammed in there. I managed to get it apart but you can't really work on the mechanism like the larger Z58s' and Z59s'. Sometimes the internal spring comes off the post thats' in there and is jammed to the side of it.

This sucks. Just got my black HA E2L put together and this happens. Luckily I got it to function like a standard Z41.

Should I get Surefire to replace it? Is there a fix I'm unaware of?

This isn't really on topic, nor does it help solve the problem here, but isn't it a Z61 if its black HA?

You can also get the new McTC (e series tailcap) and the new McClickie (clickie switch) from the shoppe. This is one nice clickie setup, very smooth too.

Ok, got it apart and got it to work. I almost feel bad now because I emailed Surefire about my problem and they stated they would send a new one out. I still don't trust this one so I guess I'll put the new one on and use this one as a spare.....
