4Sevens G5 V2 Maelstrom: Don't know where to go with this.

Hi everyone. I have two issues with my G5: An off-centered LED and this: When in low mode, it obviously flashes through moon mode before hitting low. Kind of obnoxious but tolerable at the moment. If 4Sevens can't or is unwilling to fix it, can you?......Please? Thanks.

contact 4sevens, they'll take care of you

they've got excellent support

I recently picked up a G5 also. When hitting momentary with the switch if you are in any mode it seems to flash to moonlight for a split second before going to the actual mode. I have read that they all do it, I must admit I was a bit disappointed with this.

This is called pre-flash, and is considered a normal condition of the drivers technology used in some of Four Sevens lights, and not a repairable condition or defect. Others have suggested to shield the bezel before turning on to avoid the flash and disruption of ones night vision when using moon mode.

As far as an uncentered LED, contact Four Sevens for a RMA and warranty repair. They can be contacted here, by phone, and email. Four Sevens Customer Service is very good and should offer You a solution for your uncentered LED.
Please let us know how you make out.

Take Care
