Well I had a total and complete utter failure of my 6 month old H502d. 6 months. I bought it to replace an H51 that was having imtermittent switch problems.
The H51 was gone for repair for 3 months.
Of all places, it failed tonight sitting at a campfire. In the dark. I turned it on HI, went to switch to medium, the light blipped a flash and went dead. Doornail dead. I grabbed my Black Diamond Spot backup, ran into the camper to try a fresh eneloop, nada.
Nothing. Cleaned the spring, wiped the threads, Dead. My eneloops are all good. The $65 dollar wonderlight died without warning in 6 months flat.
It has worked flawlessly up until tonight.
Not sure what will replace this. It wont be another POS ZL for sure. I dont even want to go through the insult again of paying ZL 10 bucks to fix this and have it stuck in China again for god knows how long.
I am pissed beyond all words right now
2 failures, 2 lights, in two years. Thanks, Zebralight.
I am looking at a searing hot-coal campfire right now and am resisting the urge to fill it with coleman fuel, put the tailcap on tight and throw it in
I am so damn disgusted with ZL right about now I cant even describe the extent of it.
