ARC AAA 3.2 head doesn\'t fit ARC AAA CPF 2002 body

All my newer ARC AAA 3.2 lights are noticably brighter than my old ARC AAA CPF Member Edition 2002. Not wanting to discard the old CPF light, I unsuccessfully tried to screw in the head of a 3.2 light into the green CPF body. The head won't screw-in sufficiently. I removed the 0-ring, still no luck, with the head about 1/6th inch short of making contact with the battery.

Not a complaint, but interesting that the head dimensions have changed enought to prevent interchangability.

the threads have been changed....if i'm not wrong the older heads should work on the newer bodies though.

I experienced the same thing, new won't go in old, but old will go in new...
