matthewcyho · Nov 10, 2011

After i put my Olight M21X-Warrior into the water , I think the waters get into the LED and the Reflector , After i clean all the water , but the LED still turns on and give me the hight output , but i don't know why, after i put back the reflector and the front cap and twist it back .... After one or two days, and i check the front cap , i don't know why there have some steam on the front cap's class , so how can i solve that problem > ?

Unscrew all the flashlight pieces you can (using only your hands).
Fill a small Tupperware container with rice.
Put flashlight stuff in rice. Close lid.
Wait a few days.

The rice absorbs the water

Dry, uncooked.

You can cook and eat it when it fixes the flashlight.

Why not just buy some silica get, if you do not have a dry box? Faster/more effective.

You can also take out the front glass, run the light in medium. The insides will dry very fast due to the heat.

I have already put some rich inside it

What I meant was this:

Fill the small container (almost all the way full) with dry, uncooked rice.
Unscrew the flashlight tailcap and the head, then put all 3 pieces in the rice.
Put lid back on container, wait a few days.

I hope you didn't actually put a few grains of rice inside the flashlight

. That would be "fun" to clean out!
