Hi all.
I've got what I think is an issue, but wanted to consult others first before contacting Surefire.
My E2D Ultra has an odd issue with its switching it seems.
When it's been sitting for a day or longer, it comes on in low, but with a bright "pre-flash", then a second press gets low without the flash. It repeats this for a while, but eventually will come on again on high with the first press.
It almost acts like s voltage issue, but I only use Surefire cells, and two sets have done this, from different batches. It did not do this when it was new.
Does it have a standby drain that could be affecting current available after sitting for a few weeks?
Does anyone know what the voltage should read on good batteries? Not new, but not depleted either I mean. The last time it did it, I pulled out the batteries and put them in a 4sevens, which appeared to still operate at max output (r5 quark).
Could it be something as simple as cleaning and greasing the threads and contact areas?
I did search, but didn't turn up anything.
Any help appreciated.
