  • just send it back and see if they will hook you up, I hear surefire is no joke with customer service

  • @boravw1

    I think he is going to do that..

  • every so often I hear a story on CR123's, this happens when you mix brands or when on cell is full and you mix with a cell withb less power the transfer of power overheats them and you get venting with flame, thats why I strictly use AA's or AAAs for lights but it does limit me and I do miss out on some of the nicest flashlights out there...

  • @cutlerylover

    IMO I think you are onto something there. The new AA and AAA can be very bright, no need to go to these all the time. Plus you'll save a few bucks in the process

  • What kind of tailcap assembly is that on your G2? After market? I've never seen one like that.

  • @swordofdixie

    it is normal (I think) but with a Surefire tac ring (or whatever they are called) on it

see all

  • @boravw1 shouldn't have got the incandescent if thought it wouldnt work for more than just a nightstand flashlight...thats okay, ill upgrade to the LED

  • @cutlerylover what if you used a CR123 but It had just 1 cell? 4sevens Mini 123 comes to mind... so you dont have to worry about mixed cells?

  • @ChamberTheRound sounds like the emitter head shorted.. you might have to get a new LED for it... sorry bud

  • @boravw1 they ARE a joke though...basically said i was SOL with my light..it fell out of my mount on my rifle and stopped working. Told me they do not hold up if dropped or something similar...my only question is why on the packaging does it tell me its "durable and rugged construction" when it cant withstand being dropped from 3 feet up? i wish they didnt have good flashlights or i would never buy from then again...poor poor service

  • @cutlerylover You can still use Lithium Manganese 16340 cells(CR123 size), 100% safe as it doesn't explode or vent with flames, plus it can put out a lot of amps, upto an 8C constant discharge which means 2 of them can safely power up a p91 :). They won't work with some bulbs and LED emitters though since it's 4.2V fully charged compared to the 3.2V of CR123 cells.

  • Going to try to send it back for a refund?
