Flashlight Enthusiast
I know I should know better but I can't resist a bargain:
I've had good luck with a couple of LED Lensers, so I thought this would be fun to try. At least the price is right.
Looks like it could be a fun light!
Some kind of LED:
This is where things go south. This is a tailcap? It's a staple that's bent around a plastic plug. The current is meant to pass thru the steel staple and connect with the body of the light:
What is harder, steel or aluminum? Steel, of course!
I was able to shave away this groove after trying to get the light to work for a few minutes. It doesn't work as intended. Since the metal staple doesn't make a good connection the light doesn't stay on.
What happened to spring loaded tailcaps??? The instructions that are included show a diagram of the light with a spring loaded tailcap. All of my other LED Lensers have spring loaded tailcaps.
This flashlight rates a zero in my toolkit.
DO NOT BUY THIS FLASHLIGHT.
