I'm sad to report one more issue that happened just once last night. On the one SC700d HI (out of the three) that has been seemingly working normally, I clicked it in every way imaginable for 3-4 hours straight last night on G5, G6, and G7 (wife was out of town, so I had the time and the desire to test it a LOT while watching Netflix.) ONCE and just ONCE and during a moment when I had just released the button, the button seemed to have gotten stuck in the pressed down position because the light began to cycle from low to med to high over & over on its own. I was NOT touching the button as it did this. I let it do this for several moments to see what it would do. It became clear that it wasn't going to stop, so I "clicked" the button. I noticed the button wasn't stuck down as I thought. It still "clicked" normally when I pressed it, and the light stopped cycling. When I clicked it, the light turned off like normal. I tried for the next couple of hours to duplicate the error, but it didn't happen again.
I'll keep clicking & clicking on it later to see if I can get it to duplicate the issue (or any other issue if observed). If this seemingly good light begins to show problems like this that become common occurrences and not rare occurrences, then I will sadly return it as well. I hope this new observed issue was just a fluke because I REALLY WANT TO KEEP IT. Again, I REALLY LOVE this light - the beam pattern, tint, output, runtimes, size and weight on it make it a potential "one of the greatest lights of all time," but these issues have to be resolved before considering that.
Hope this was helpful. Let me/us know your thoughts.
