I have some very old CMG Infinity flashlights that are plagued by poor contact. Tightening the head all the way down still leaves me with a flashlight that won't light. I have put a small wad of tin foil in the bottom and the light then turns on. The foil quickly loses it resiliency after a few twists on and off. Back to darkness!
I see two possible solutions: A brass shim or a light spring - the latter being my preference. A spring such as the one at the bottom of my Quark Mini 123 seems about right (it can almost compress completely flat) and I have to assume the Quark Mini AA has just the right spring. 4sevens does not sell their springs so I am looking for a source for such a spring. Does anyone know of a source that they can share?
I also welcome other possible solutions.
TIA
