Last year I ordered two BLF Kronos: X5 and X6. Nice lights. But the switch of X5 now and then works and now and then it does not shut off, unless I loosen the tailcap. This problem has never occured with X6.
At first I thought that I was unlucky with the switch of X5 and because of the low price and long shipping times from Banggood(no complaints over it, that's the price for free shipping from China) I didn't bother to ask for a replacement.
So I ordered two Astrolux S3s, exactly the same light as X5. Today I recieved them. And believe it or not: both the switches of S3s suffer from the same problem as the switch of X5!
I didn't find any discussion about such a problem with these lights so I put the question here. Is it anything I missed?... As I mentioned: never happened with X6.
