I'm new here, though I've been lurking for a month or so. I recently bought a Streamlight Propolymer 4AA Luxeon. I really like it, however, I have noticed a couple of potential problems/things I don't like.
First, I was playing around with the light tonight, clicking it on and off a lot in a short period of time, and after a little bit, maybe 15 clicks or so, momentary on wouldn't work, and if i clicked it the whole way, sometimes it would turn on fine, sometimes it would come on for a split second and then turn off. If i clicked it back off it would do the same thing. It works fine now if I turn it on just once, use it, then turn if off. This problem only seems to happen if I'm turning it on and off a lot fairly rapidly. Is this a fairly common problem with clickie switches, or do you think I have a defective light?
Also, I noticed two small artifacts on the edge of the corona which, if connected, would make a line through the center of the hotspot. These are at the same angle as two small gold colored wires in the led itself. I was wondering if anyone else with a 4AA lux notices this.
