Was using my A2 last night when suddenly the beam just dimmed down and turn orange in a split secound. I heard of other folks that their A2 will totally switch off on low batt (only the led is left running). Since I knew the batts is running low so I brought along a set of new spare batt. I am wondering why my A2 didn't shut off the xenon bulb (as what other A2 does), hmm...has the regulating circuit spoilt? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

Sound normal when the incandescent drops out of regulation. The LEDs should still be working (for quite some time).

Sometimes mine shuts down. Other times if I keep hitting the switch it will come on dim, then bright, then drop back down. I can do this a few times then it will not light up the incan at all.
