Today I received (from DX) my new Ultrafire W501B with a red Philips Luxeon K2 emitter. It has 1 mode only. The slightest contact with the rear push-button causes the light to flicker. A solid click turns it on/off. Does this suggest an issue with the tailcap or is the emitter?
As an aside, I notice the output flickers a little bit on its own. I have set it down on a solid surface, then turned it on and watched the beam against a white wall. In about 3 seconds the power flickers and drops about 20 - 30%. It may or may not flicker up or down again on its own. Kinda worried it might burn out.
