Well after buying at least 6 AAAs and one LSH-P, I finally bit the bullet and ordered an Arc 4+.
After having seconds thoughts, I emailed Arc and asked them to hold the order for a Rev 3. But then I received an email from Merri "Sorry but we shipped it already"
Guess what? I am GLAD they did!
I was nervous about the switch issue and expected the worst (People with low expectations are seldom disappointed!).
Well, I am happy to say that this Arc 4+ works PERFECTLY!! The switch feel took a short time to get used to, and it took me a few days to master the operation (Which I now find intuitive). But the unit works flawlessly.
So what's the deal? I have heard so much about the switch issue on this forum, only to discover perfection.
Am I alone? Or has the rev 2 switch problem been corrected?
For reference, my Arc 4+ was born on 6/28/04 and carries SN 1637.
I will not be sending it in for the re-designed Rev 3 unless a problem surfaces.
I am very curious to know if I am just lucky or if Peter is just good!
Or is it too early to tell...I have had the light only about 1 week, but have used it constantly!
What do you guys think?
