The light beam it puts out is not round, its like one semi-round center, with an oval overlapping one side, and a dark swirl in the middle.
Also the front bezel is very difficult to twist from H-L.
1-Is it normal for the light pattern to not be round?
2-Can I make the bezel twist more easily by doing something like applying a lubricant or something to the threads? Or is supposed to be tight and difficult to twist so it wont accidentally change modes H-L
Lucky I had mine in my pocket to check.nothing like checking blf whilst taking care of natures needs while on the clock.tmi I know ,but bouncing a light of the wall in a stall- ok it’s borderline disturbed.
It is mostly round, but looking super close, it’s like a tight spun galaxy.very slightly wider.
I am not to picky long as it’s genuine
My bezel turns are very very stiff as well, but I find nothing noteably wrong with the beam on mine. The beam isn't the prettiest due to the smooth reflector but thats about it. Sorry to hear!! :(
Hi Thanks to all for the replies and checking for me, I appreciate it.
Can you please let me know what item to use as a lubricant and where to apply it? My Fenix LD20 came with something like silver-grey graphite on the threads its was so smooth.
The head can be unscrewed from the main body of the light to get to the o-ring,
then you can just put a little bit of grease/oil on the o-ring. :)
I use 'SuperLube' synthetic oil/grease since I found some at a nearby hardware store, and I heard some others use it too.
I think the SuperLube Oil feels a bit smoother for o-rings, but their grease works fine too.
