    Sticky Switch. Repair Help?

    I agree. BTW i disasembled the old switch by using the 2 holes and scewing the brass innards out of the alum casing using a pair of spring clip pliers. This worked good along with the WD40. Switch is full of gunk or course so I will try to clean it up and reassemble and maybe get it working...

    Sticky Switch. Repair Help?

    Sticky Switch. Repair Help?

    Had this long time and would like to keep it or give to my grandson. No markings but it's 3-aaa led, maybe a coast. Think I spilled beer on my flashlight switch and now it's sticky so won't turn off unless I unscrew the cap. What looks like screws are just decorative and don't screw. Appears...

    Led Lenser P7 or equivelent

    Thanks drillbritz2ov. the P14 is a good alternative but it's about 50% larger and doesn't have the focus capability that seems to be the main advantage of most of the led lensers. I'm thinkin' power and small. Will

    Led Lenser P7 or equivelent

    Thanks Egsise, the pics are amazing and helpful. The Q2 led I guess gives you the warmer light and the colour is not washed out. Doing further research (this is fun) and decided I need something in the 250 lumens class so looking at Olight M20 and the Fenix TK11 R2. About the same size, both 2...

    Led Lenser P7 or equivelent

    Thanks for the responses. The hocus will probably be for indoor general purpose, in my suitcase,truck putting the garbage out etc. The P7 or something in the 250 lumens range will be for fishing, deer hunting, duck hunting, riding the utv and other outdoor activities. Small lightweight...
