well my firedragon is already having issues. None of my 18650s are working, Ive tried like 8 of them. I think it might be the batteries because they are old samsung ICR18650-22b. Put them on the charger for about 6 hours. last night I tried one and it worked but was only about as bright as my 1.2w 445. I put a few in today and the LED turns on, but when I press the button the LED goes out. I'm thinking maybe the driver got damaged in shipping. It did work a about 20 sec at one point today. I did try to put one of them in my 550mw 808 and nothing happened, so that's why I think its maybe the batteries.

going to try to charge the batteries up for a bit, and try again. :/
If that fails, once the batteries that rhd is sending me get here I will know for sure if its the laser or just crappy batteries.

just posted here to ask if anybody had an explanation or idea.
Thanks.
