Hi there,
I have recently got a new LED flashlight - all of the parts recommended here.
It is lovely and bright, but after turning it on for a few seconds, it will start to erratically flicker.
No combination of buttons resolves this.
Am I looking at battery issues (I got these) or a dud unit?
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Kumoe
Check the switch retainer on the inside of the tail cap is tight and that the threads are clean and not covered in grease. Those batteries should be good. If the battery voltage is too low some torches will give a steady slow flash but that doesn't sound like your problem.
Awesome. :)
Will try this when i get home tonight.
Its not on disco mode ?
Well, I tried the grease on the threads - there was nothing there I could remove.
I didn't notice any other issues with the torch - but it is driving my crazy.
It is mad:

That is definitely one I have not seen. My pick would be the driver board.
So it is buggered then. Damn!
Kumoe pm me and you can have one of my 501's that I no longer use
i had similar with a LED lenser , i read the instructions on the webternet and hey presto u can programme it to do that flicker thing,,,,, maybe same for u?
