Hello all. My T5 is acting up. When I unscrew the bezel or the switch the light sometimes turns on, sometimes on high and sometimes on low. It will not turn off until one end of the body or the other is disconnected completely. The switch does nothing at all. I tried a different switch from another T5 and it does the same thing. Sometimes tapping the side does the same thing. Only unscrewing the body will turn it off. Once it is off it will sometimes return to normal operation but not 100%. The light doesn't overheat or anything dramatic like that, it's like it has a mind of it's own sometimes. It'll work okay for awhile and then it goes haywire. Suggestions? Thanks in advance. :thinking:

New battery didn't help. I have a feeling the electronics have an issue. I'll probably have to send it to Amilite for repair.
