I got my Quark 123^2 X today.
When I got the package the light was able to rattle around, which I thought was a little strange. Continuing when I opened it there was a very gritty feel and sound to the threads, it was as if there was very fine grit in the threads, especially at the pocket clip and tailcap.
So I put the batteries in (the correct way), hit the tail button and.... nothing. Clicked it a few more times, nothing happened. Checked the instructions, yes they're in the correct way. I took the tailcap off and put it back on once or twice and then it started working.
I played with the light a bit, set the modes I want (Max/Moonlight), and went about my way. One odd thing I noticed is at one point I had the bezel turned and clicked it on and for an instant it flashed the Max then went to Moonlight.
About 40 minutes later I needed to see into a dark cupboard in my basement, so I pulled out my light, hit the tailcap and..... nothing. Fiddling with it for a minute or two caused it to come on, but wtf ?
Anybody else experienced this? What should I do?
