Hello,
I searched around and did not see a thread like this, so if it is a double thread, I'm sorry. I have a Surefire R1 that I use at work as an LEO. The other morning, I worked a single vehicle collision in the midst of a downpour. The R1 performed great, however now there is moisture in the head on the lens. I figured it may dry itself out, but hasn't thus far. Last night, back at work, i noticed that the reflector and lens had both fogged, so I turned it on high to head the head and try and dry it up. This did clear the reflector, but again it all condensed on the lens. Any suggestions or experience on getting the water out? Also, I have never opened the head of this light. I did install a McClicky in the tailcap, but that should not effect the sealing of the head.

I know people put wet cell phones in a container of uncooked rice to absorb the moisture.May work on a flashlight.
