Anyone having any issues with their MT03s? Ordered three, and all have this problem. Medium mode does not work. When cycling through the modes, when it gets to “medium” it just flashes once, and doesn’t get any brighter. Has the same brightness as “low” mode. The rest of the modes seem to work properly. The lights involved are all 4S models, two nw one cw. Batteries used are Sanyo 18650ga.
Well, just tried some 18650Bs in one, and now I have medium mode? Of course, I can’t tighten down the tailcap. All three lights that exhibit this behavior have different sets of the 18650GAs. Weird. Any ideas why this could be occurring?
Hhmm, the MT07 is quite low but it is NW, not CW. Mine is doing 5,300 now w/resistor mod, but was 4,700 stock. Still 3,500 you got is quite a bit lower than the 4,500 they rated. Wonder if the 4S is lower lumens...
Disappointed to hear another MT07 NW at ~3500 lumen like mhalen’s (his was 2s2p if I recall correctly). I know NW is lower lumens but I wouldn’t expect almost 1,000+ lumens less. None of my other NW lights have this much of a difference. Did Haikelite ever officially release lumen ratings for the NW?
Yeah mine was 2S2P. They told me they would send me a 4s driver. They said that the battery tube is the same, just the driver is different. I don’t want to sound like I’m glad that unknown got 3500, but it at least confirms that I’m not the only one with a NW that got that. I’d be curious what others are getting too.
I didn’t think they could add a 4s driver without a change in battery tube. Unless the driver has wide operating voltage range. But then why would a 4s make sense without a change in the battery tube. I dunno. My battery tube is definitely side by side and not diagonal.
My MT07 NW is getting 3560 and my MT03 NW is getting 6750
how can I tell if my lights are 2P2S or 4S
I also have some strange dents on the neg side of some new VTC6 cells—I don’t recall them being there—not sure if dogging the tail cap all the way caused this—crazy
