I wondered what was going on with my light last night. Turned out to be low voltage warning. Last night I checked the battery and it seemed to kick in the warning (on high mode) about 3.6v. Today at work I played with it again and the frequency of the dimming seems to have increased as the voltage gets lower. I don’t know if the light will shut off at some point and am reluctant to run the battery down to find out as it is unprotected and I have no multimeter or charger to check the battery voltage.

Low the voltage higher the frequency

Edit: when I was able to check battery voltage I kept running the light. Voltage got down to 2.7v with no shut down.

Interesting…. thanks pinkpanda3310!! :+1:
Good video & good music…… :beer:

Thanks for the disassembled view, can you easily get a photo of the pill / what’s under the MCPCB.

HELP!
I just got my Amutorch AT40 Nichia from the mail and its DOA! It is Not working… Can somebody tell me what can possibly be wrong with it? I’ve searched the internet and it seems to have some problems and I just can’t get it to light up… :frowning: Thanks in advance!!!

251

It is DOA is always a very difficult question to answer. It helps enormously if you start by checking the obvious yourself first (like does the battery make contact on both sides)

252

As dojzz said… check battery connections. Especially at the rear switch.
See the quoted post below for more info.

Yes, I’ve checked and both positive and specially the negative on the tail do have contacts. I’ve also checked to see if the battery is working and it is working.

254

Darn… was hoping that would be it. :frowning: … Have you got voltage to the LED’s?

255

Are all the ’extras’ in the picture below supposed to be included in the box?
Mine only had 2 O’rings & a switch cover… nothing else.

It arrived DOA also. :person_facepalming: . Oh well…. :wink:

I have not had a chance to check it out yet, besides the battery making proper contact…. it is too. Hopefully today I can check it out further.

256

Mine too.

257

Hmmm… Ok, thanks for that info. :+1:

Did yours work?? If so you are ahead of me…… :wink:

258

I’m quite dissapointed by its build quality along with the lack of using R9050 Nichia 219Cs.

259

/\…. :+1:

I got mine from Amutorch direct. I didn't know they packed differently for their resellers.

@will34 suspect it is the tailcap switch giving the problem. See if you are able to power up the light by connecting the tube and battery cathode with a wire?

261

Mine works fine.

According to the lock review, it does not work with long batteries.

Edit: It doesn’t work with 30Q button top , this battery is too long.

262

Good, glad yours works. :+1: … Nice review you linked to also.
Sadly, long batteries are not my problem…. mine just does not work. :slight_smile:

263

Can it be any connection on the top (head, driver, MCPCB), not the tail? Hope you can solve it and put back to work! :+1:

264

Well… I took it apart, checked all the connections, gave it a good cleaning, put it back together, and it works just fine now.
Pretty neat light too…… :+1:

265

Eheh, you know what they say: “from dusT till dawn” :smiley: :sunglasses:
I’m glad it works now :wink: Hope you enjoy it mate :beer:

266

Yep… that about sums it up. :wink:
And thank you my friend… I am liking it pretty well. :+1: . :wink:
