It's been quite a while since I bought a new flashlight. So I was excited to receive my new Surefire E1B in the mail today. When I pulled the lid up on the black cardboard box, I was very surprised to see the light was on! I guess the way it was wedged in the plastic holder was pressing the button. The light seemed to stay the same dim brightness in either mode. So I tested the battery, and the battery it shipped with was at 1.76v.
Now that I installed a new battery it's working fine, but I've never had that happen before.
