The D10 was on my bedside, off and set to minimum, when it started strobing on its own, the only way I could get it to switch off was by unscrewing the head and body.
When I checked it out the next day the light still works of a fashion in that it produces light but acts like a disco light, not keeping to any set level and not working with switch presses.
The battery read 0v but when I read another post here about the protection circuit kicking in, I charged it and it now seems fine.
The inside of the lens has a frosting on it as if water has got in and condensed but it is permanent.
I have been in contact with 4sevens who are going to look at it but their take seemed to be that it was probably the battery that had caused the problem then it would not be covered under warranty.
Has anyone else had this sort of thing happen and is it not much more likely that the torch has caused the battery to discharge not the other way round?
