Hi,
I have a surefire L4, which as i understand it, has type III hard anodising. Also marketed as a tough torch.
I was therefore quite surprised, when I accidentally dropped my L4 from a height of 12 inches approx onto smooth, clean laminate flooring, to find that the L4 was marked from the impact. Not too severely, but noticeable none the less and I am really annoyed with myself
The damaged area is on the outer edge of the tailcap.
I had hoped for higher resistance to damage. Understandable to be marked, if dropped onto hard, rough concrete, but smooth laminate flooring?
Has anyone else experenced this or can any L4 owners comment upon this particular torched durability?
Also, any advice on how I can touch up the damage?
I know nothing stays like new, but I had expected the Surefire to wear if at all, very slowly and very subtley and to stand up better to lifes knocks and
Thanks for any advice,
Jason
