Why was the short tube made so you can’t use the lanyard ring?
Nvmd….wrong thread!!!

Well was fun while it lasted, what was an intermittent issue is now permanent - the button is completely dead and non responsive
My KR4/KR1 tubes work with the lanyard ring, so I think it was fixed at some point.
Emailed Intl- outdoors and had a reply offering to sell a replacement switch as its out of warranty - however the bezel is on tight and wont be easy to remove without causing damage
You’ll probably need a new switch boot, too.

! looks like its irreparable. mangled the switch boot and a little red switch fell out

You need to get the retainer ring out, then grab the cables with some fine tweezers and resolder the button PCB. Obvioulsy you need a new switch boot, too.
I have one of those gold D4V2.
You’re in luck: you got the flush retaining ring so the light should be repairable. The flush retaining ring is removable. Unlike the raised retaining ring which I found impossible to budge.
Next step is to desolder all the wires to the aux board and the star. Only attempt this if you have soldering skills and a fine tip for your soldering iron available. The wires to the aux LEDs are tiny. Before desoldering, take a picture so you can make sure to get every wire back to the right bondpad when reassembling.
After desoldering, remove the aux board and the star. Then insert a toothpick or other tool into the wire whole and push the driver out of the head. Once it is partially out you should be able to access to tiny wires which go to contacts on the underside of the red switch. Assuming those bondpads didn’t rip off the switch, soldering the switch wires back on. Reverse the process to reassemble.
Notes:
Check out this very interesting mod where you can keep the auxiliary lights on by using the reflashing kit. Posted on Re-edit:
I have had 4 Emisar / Noctigon torches stolen from me.... wish they would start putting serial numbers or BLE locating functionality inside. I am sure of where 2 went but have no way to prove. These cost a good bit of money and anything would help....

I had the same thing happen to my D4V2 Ti and I emailed Hank... He sent me a brand new head to screw onto the battery tube, good customer service. Might be a bit of a wait, emailing in different time zones... shipping... but they corrected the issue.

Try taking the magnet (if any) out of the tailcap and put a BLE beacon inside.
Hi, I’m planning to order D4V2, is samsung high cri led is an options for this flashlight via suggestions?
Thank you!

How have you had so many stolen? Do you leave them lying around or something?
how do i know what driver mine has/?its red on one side and white on the other
For anyone wondering, I inquired about clear lenses, and was told they will be available next week.

OMG this is the manker switch design that I HATE!
Is anyone else having problems programming their light they bought recently?
I could not get into the floor/ceiling menu when I first got it, and decided to just leave it as is. I tried again yesterday after practicing on my MF01S with no luck. The MF01S works great, but 4 clicks on the D4 results in locking the light (from on or off). This morning I did a factory reset and now I can’t even change the aux leds. I would post the firmware version, but don’t know how to do that.
You are likely in the simple UI of Anduril 2.

MF01S has Anduril UI.
A recently purchased D4v2 has Anduril 2
It’s a new & different UI, the button combinations for programming etc are totally different.
