Hi together,

i bouth on dealextreme a new EastwardYJ YJ-XAQ5, loaded the batteries, inserted them. But the flashlight don't work.

Perhaps i inserted the batteries the wrong way. The "spring" is on - and the + is "on" the button.

Is that correct. Whats the problem?

Thank you for the help!

Yes i know :)

in germany it's unusual that the "spring" is connected to the "+" side of the battery.

next time i know better.
