Well I dont know how this is going to turn out, so I will keep you guys aprised. I've been lingering for a little while on here, very good info I might add thanks, that is why I bought a gladius, seems highly recomended from you guys.
heres the story.
I just got my gladius the other day, I might add it was rather late and barely got it before my big hunting trip(another story in its self) so I get to lake chelan WA and try to turn on my nice new $130 flashlight expecting it to work perfectly, it turns on then when I move to look at my tent it decides to turn off, I shake it and it turns back on. I think this is strange and pull the batts and check it out with my surefire G2(damn boy scouts always have backup) looks fine. So I put it back together and it still doesnt work unless I shake it or beat it on my hand. seems there is somthing loose inside of the tail cap. So you can say I was very disapointed and had to resort to my surefire for the rest of the trip. I love the flashlight and botach is sending my a return box for replacment but will be out my new flashlight for god knows how long, because so far they have been very very slow at even returning a phone call or e-mail.
Oh well rant off.
PS the gladius seems like a very good and cool light just hope the next one works. Do you think maybe I got an old model that had these issues? oh by the way I got a desert tan one because botach forgot to tell me that sniper grey was out, hence the delay in my shipment:huh2: I do not have a problem with botach they seem to just be a very busy company at the moment, every one that I talked to was very nice, altough english doesnt seem to be the main language for most of them? Out sourced call center?
