My V1 Gatlight is dead....It doesn't turn on at all despite multiple batteries.
I love that light--the LED is old by modern standards but it is soooo cool.
Any ideas on repair?

Very cool
Yes, battery is fine as holds voltage even when the switch is on, thus, has plenty of capacity....like I said before, it won't even start off an external 12volt power supply. I'm pretty sure it is the ballast, but for some reason the 110v charger doesn't seem to work either.
Amondotech finally...
My Amondotech has been dead since about 2 weeks after I bought it...Repeated charges don't seem to help and I put my 12 volt airplane battery charger (Battery Tender) on it as well for a while and that didn't change that fact it just flickers like I WANTS to start but cannot.
I NEVER deep...
How the heck do I get the back cover off anyhow? I removed the two screws and turned counter clockwise, but it doesn't go very far, only about half way to the marks and it sticks...
Ideas?
It would be REALLY great if Amondotech would ANSWER MY EMAILS about my product that failed after less than a month (and basically no use).
Really disappointing to buy a product from someone recommended by CPF and get such bad support!
My illuminator is DEAD! I worked fine when I got it. Now, it just flickers....
The battery check feature shows green still when I push it, but just flickers! When I plug in the charger, it does NOT indicate charging anymore!
WTF?!?
It really is impressive..I set mine up last night pointing straight up in the back yard and walked about 50 feet away....Looks like a big searchlight shooting into the air...
Very very cool
