My EagleTac P20A2 (with GREEN LED) has been a much used excellent purchase. Im using decent NiMH cells eneloop, tenergy etc. A few weeks ago and again this evening it fell over while tail standing beneath a desktop lampshade. I noticed and felt the rubber tail cap protruding and bulging. what little I know about gas build up in metal flashlights told me to unscrew the head (while standing behind a door) then the bulge was gone. I changed cells, no problem, until this evening when it happened again. This time because the cells still appeared to have ample power I removed the head then replaced it with the cells still inside. 10 minutes later the tailcap bulged out again I removed the cells and put in freshly charged cells. ANY thoughts on what's going on here? thanks!
