I have a Jet-I Pro I.B.S. My wife brought it home last weekend from our cabin saying it needed a new battery. I didn't check the old AA alkaline battery but just replaced it with a new one. I can't get the light to power up in any way. I doubt the LED burned out or anything else for that matter. The light has always worked fine and doesn't get much run time.
Any help would be appreciated as to what I might try.
Thanks.

clean out the insides with alcohol,
get rid of any excess lubricant (that could be creating a short circuit),
remove any battery corrosion residues,
and very lightly clean the end of the battery tube with fine emery paper
(in case oxidation is preventing proper contact)

Try again with a new battery
I hope it works.

if all else fails, buy a backup of your choosing

I suggest a Lumintop Tool AA... as a possible alternative

Thanks but didn't seem to help. I would like a comparable size and comparable output light to this light using a standard alkaline battery. Open to opinions.

sad for your loss, I have no experience with your light model

suggest you spend some quality time with google
start by researching the light I recommended:
https://lmgtfy.com/?q=Lumintop+Tool+AA

and collect the specs for the light you have, so you can compare features
https://lmgtfy.com/?q=Jet+Beam+Jet-I+Pro

let us know what you learn

there are several AA light options that come to mind for your research
Eagletac D25a clicky
Thrunite T10
and others..

given what I like, I would go with the AA Tool, in copper.. also available in Titanium, and Aluminium.

since this is basically a "what to buy" thread, I have to be cautious, as rules frown on giving where to buy info... feel free to PM me if you want to have a private dialogue
