I have a 120P that I modded to XP-E, the light has been fine for a month, I purchased a few different reflectors to try, while swapping the reflectors around the light became non responsive to the switch, and is in constant "candle mode". I had the LED insulated from the reflectors, so I don't think a short in this area caused the issue, I have tried swapping a new LED, no change. Does anyone have any ideas, I've tried all the novatac resets without any help. If not, any ideas to mod the light further to at least get it functional again.

I would install a new driver and LED. You'll go nuts trying to diagnose/repair what's not working!

I think the bansuri/LFlex mod is the direction I'm going. This will preserve most of the original type UI, such as output levels and strobe if desired I believe. Now I just need some clarification on how to wire the LFlex to the original contact board, any input ?
