Hello everyone.
I recently ordered an MTE SF-23 (SKU. 22569) off of dealextreme.com
The item arrived yesterday. Quite relieved to see it was intact, working and reasonable quality.
I put in the TrustFire batteries (SKU. 05790) and flicked through the modes to test it out (there was still a reasonable amount of charge in the batteries).
FANTASTIC I thought. What a bargain.
I then decided to charge the batteries (SKU. 00936).
Once charged I put one in...and to my dismay the 'High Beam' wasn't working. The medium and low beam was fine. Also when clicking through the modes, the strobe and SOS beams flashed once or twice and then cut off...
I'm completely confused as to why this is happening. I'm not really that clued up on this topic, so was wondering if anyone could help me out?
I'm guessing the batteries have too much power on a full charge and as a 'fail-safe' the light is cut off to protect itself when on max output?
Any help is appreciated
