Thread: Lensor head torch issue.

I bought a new lensor seo 7r head torch. The blue and white model. Nz hunter use sane model by the looks of it.
I've used this one infrequently and now after a full charge
to green indicator, it lasts 1 night around camp and back from a hunt. Without fail, second night it starts and cuts out after 10 minutes. Not ideal right. .

Is it the battery? Do I just replace it? Mechanism? anyone had similar issues?

Also keen to hear of bomb proof medium spec head torches brands and models that you guys rate.

Side note. Torch is 3 years old, mild to average use.

its the battery, not uncommon

Yes battery should be able to get a replacement underwarrenty

its caused by leaving the battery in when not in use

best to charge them then take them out for storage.

Thanks again team, its apparently covered
under warranty 7 years. Just need to find a dealer
in Auckland if anyone knows who the best people to talk too.

only 2 year warranty on batteries on led lenser

Pro tip there guys. Mine did the same thing. I was beginning to think the wires were going faattu

Yip mine too! Great to know it's the battery as I was on line this arvo looking for a replacement head light. I will try it with rechargeable AAA batteries and see how it goes.

careful...rechargable have SLIGHTLY different voltage and are sometimes SLIGHTLY larger too....

Ours live by our beds when we are home as emergency lighting if something major happens. They also get used regularly away so leaving the battery out is not a clever thing to do and shouldn't be necessary.
