Got my lights in the mail a few days ago, just now tried 2 use them. Idk if it’s a quality control issue but I cant them to work correctly. Like my batteries are too big? The cap wont screw on all the way and when I get it on all the way the button wont depress at all.
I’ve tried both protected and unprotected button top 18650s. I also only inserted the batteries at the head per the instructions. And o my 18650w aren’t dead.
6.75cm maybe? I’ve tried multiple battery brands that I have though, same issue. Even when I’m able to screw the cap on all the way, same issue. And it’s happening with both lights.
For example this is 1 of the batteries I have from MTN Electronics: Sanyo/Panasonic NCR18650GA Protected 3500mAh
That’s the way I see it. I havent been here but 3 years but I have probably collected +/- 30 lights. All of them loaded with toykeepers touch. If you had told me 10yrs ago what flashlights would be capable of…… I could not have even been able to imagine. I mean even if I only give $2/mo for a year it would only be $24 or like teacher said, you could give $24 the first month and then cancel. Really simple……… I think.
The buttons movement should not be physically effected by the battery length. The switch pcb sits against a ridge and the button floats on the other side. Maybe your too long cell is physically compressing the spring and bending the pcb?
If the batteries are unprotected, try loosening the head a few turns, then tighten the tail cap nice and snug, then tighten the head.
Also make sure the driver retaining ring is tight. It seems a lot have been showing up loose.
