Hi all,
Okay, according to my profile I'm still a newbie, so I guess that means I'm entitled to ask questions like this.
Many of my flashlights are turned on and off by twisting the bezel. I think I read somewhere that you should turn the bezel 180° to turn off a light. Why? It's much more convenient for me to just twist the bezel only slightly beyond the position where the light goes out. Most of my lights have a significant amount of friction in the head so that they are not likely to turn themselves on if brushed or knocked around. Is there some chance that the battery could drain if the switch is very close to being on?
Please tell me, how far you turn your bezel and why.
Thanks,
Ken
