Drains battery when off, seller was dishonest
I hardly use this flashlight, so it took me a while to notice that the it drains the battery even when off. The first battery it did this to I gave it the benefit of doubt and tested it with another battery. The same thing happened again, so I contacted the seller who was not cooperative, initially claiming this is normal, saying:
"We have learned that your flashlight is still working properly. Please read the following tips
Energy Saving Settings - if not in use, we recommend simple thing to "lock the unit out" just by unscrewing the tail cap a few Turns touch Switches Open flashlight."
When I disputed this dishonesty the seller then claimed that my warranty had run out. It's difficult to find this sort of defect out quickly, and when I gave the seller courtesy to test it with another battery the seller used this courtesy against me to then say my warranty had run out.
