I'm a complete novice when it comes to flashlights, so this question may have a very simple solution I'm not aware of. I ran searches on as many different terms as I could think of but didn't have any luck with my particular problem. I have a Olight M20-X that will not stay in High mode. I can use Low or Medium modes with no problem, but if I switch to High either by using the mode button or by double-clicking the momentary switch, it will switch to High power mode for roughly 1-3 seconds and then immediately drop into low power mode. This is my bedside flashlight and it does not get much use. I've had it for a couple of years and it's only been turned on a few times. I don't remember it working like this in the past though.
Is this just a problem with old batteries not having enough juice to power the high mode? Or is there something else I need to look at? In searching this problem I've seen other issues people have had with switches not working and the like, so I've made sure everything is screwed in tightly at both ends of the flashlight, as I know this is a typical problem with this particular light. Any information or help would be appreciated!
