Mine arrived yesterday and it is DOA. Flashing purple light when I try to recharge internally (and yes, the plastic thing is removed). Doesn’t work with an Imalent 26650 or an Efest 26650 either
Yeah, depressing! I was wondering if this first batch might have some bugs like some 1st generations do.
I hesitated buying this light because I don’t care for built-in chargers mainly because of the rubber charging port covers which could become an issue with use.
I only own one light with a built-in charger and the charger was DOA upon arrival.
EDIT turns out that the battery tube was shipped installed the wrong way. Once I put the non anodized end towards the tail of the light, it worked fine. Nice and bright. UI is the same as the Thrunite TN4A
It was a total fluke that I figured it out. Build quality is very good, typical for Thrunite in my experience. Rubber cap seals well but time will tell if it lasts. Charging rate was at least 1.5 amps via the usb port. Feels solid and works well. A little bit of battery rattle and the lens makes the same sound (tinking sound) as the MF02 when it is heating up. 5000mah battery included. Overall, very happy
