Problem in brighter modes with the BLF A6

[SIGShooter]

@Spud Murphy

Thanks for the link. Having read through the relevant posts and seeing pics of appalling soldering I guessed that shoddy assembly was probably the problem so yesterday I desoldered the led board and had a look at the driver. All looked to be good with tidy soldering, derrrr. I checked for continuity and nothing appeared to be amiss so that was that. I’m assuming now that the problem is with components and that is not for me to do. Having had to desolder and then resolder to get at the driver I have now invalidated the warranty…… Apart from that BG customer service want video and pics before they will act - I don’t have a smart phone or video camera and my cheapo camera is not up to taking even half decent close up pictures. I am going to email Neils assistant (?) and explain situation -hopefully they will send me a new driver or head. Otherwise I shall order a new driver from BG as I see they are selling them for US$6.24 which is less than it would cost me to return the light to China and quicker. Even with the cost of the new driver it still sounds like a good deal for a working A6 (I paid €24.52 for the light) Ye live and learn…………………

If you have to buy the driver you can look at M4D M4X Deals to get the code to buy it for $4 USD.
