Newbie Alert!!!
This is my first post but I have been lurking for a little bit trying to figure out what first decent light to get. I went with a Fenix P2D because of the small form factor, runtime, and brightness.
I ordered two, one for myself and one for my dad and I just got them in the mail. (I also ordered a bunch of Titanium brand CR123A batteries based on suggestions here).
So it took me a minute to figure out how to switch between the turbo and general mode and it was because the first light I pulled out is turning in 3 places on the light. It is like a mag light where it is unscrewing and the LED is pulling back from the reflector. It is not doing this on the other light. From what I have read it is NOT suppose to do this correct? It will also unscrew at the battery tube / LED assembly junction (which also changes modes) and at the battery tube / switch junction.
So I'm not sure if it is suppose to adjust beam focus or if it is suppose to be fixed. If it is suppose to be fixed would it be safe to unscrew it and put some teflon tape in there to tighten it up so it wont inadvertently rotate while changing modes?
Sorry for the longwinded post. Excited about the new toy but a little concerned at the same time. Thanks!!!
