Seems like in general no one wants a light that is sealed with glue or threadlock. Can we get the MF04 to be built completely without glue or threadlock? Maybe pass along a message to the manufacturer stating so?
Why just first batch? Please request for Banggood/Astrolux to stop using glue on all of their flashlights. The majority of their customers are flashlight hobbyists and many would like to be able to mod their flashlights.
Aside from modding, if the manufacturer wants to glue the light shut they should assume all servicing at their expense, centering led’s, removing dust from reflectors, cleaning fingerprints inside the lens, etc.
