i got my klarus g30 few days ago and it is very bright
but when i pot it on turbo after only 90 seconds it drops to high mode and now it happend after only 3 seconds
and it not because of the heat regolation, it wouldnt drop so fast and it wouldnt drop to high mode and i tried it while cooling it so it has a proplem and i dont know what to do
other than that evrything works well but it is realy anoying that i cant use it in its full brightness

What batteries are you using with this light? Have you tried different batteries and still have the same drop-out of turbo?

Well all i have is few trustfire 18650
But i am wating for Panasonic 18650 batteries
But it is wired that it isnt just droping the otput its jumps from turbo to high
Guess I have to wait for the new batteries to find out if it's the batteries or the flashlight

I would say its the cells, they cant hold the load on them. Once you get the pany cells, all should be well.................would recycle the fire cells tbh.

I'm doing a pass-around with the G20, and the trustfire batteries which I received from DX for free would not even power up the flashlight. I would definitely get better cells before thinking it's a problem with the light. I'm running the G20 using AW, Orbtronic and some old DE (off-brand) cells with no problems, but the Trustfire brand does not even power up the light.

I got the Panasonic batteries and it works perfect
Thank you guys for the help you saved from sending it back to China
I'm working on a review of this flashlight but it would take some time
