I will offer a refund to anyone who has received an Arc LSH-S/P/F that has a cosmetic defect on the housing that looks like this:
These dark stripes usually appear in threes and are most likely caused by slight density changes in the metal bar stock. We did not detect them until after they were plated so we had to pay for them (long story). All of our recent stock looks like this so we cannot replace your unit with one that looks better, we can only refund you your money.
I am providing our FedEx account number: 2580-3856-8
Please use our FedEx number to return the light to us for a refund. I ask that you please not use the most expensive option when shipping. Thanks.
I want to apologize again for not detecting this sooner. I am sure it was detected by our production manager but somehow in all the recent hubub I didn't get the message. It took a CPF'er posting to this forum to get my attention. I have since posted this picture and a warning to the order page so we can notify people before they buy the light.
If you do decide to keep the light anyways, the unit is up to spec in everyway save for the cosmetic apperance of these lines. These lines will not wear any faster or scratch any easier.
We already offer a 30-day refund guarantee but I am modifying it (due to my negligence) by adding the use of the free shipping back to us.
Again, we can only refund your money we do not have any replacement units in stock that do not have these stripes. This is also the last production run of the LSH models.
