That would not have happened if you used the safety pin on the Arctic. I removed mine when I inserted the battery for the first time, reinserted the pin after the tailcap was back on.DJNY said:I already had bad experiences with the leck of safety features at the Arctic. The batterie was empty, I changed it and while screwing down the tail cap, suddenly the 900mW came out some centimetres away from my face. Thank got I wore some safety glasses.
Activating the PGL-III-C is laborious, but there is a lot less risk of an accident.
How is the battery life compared to the Arctic? Is it just me, or does the Arctic eat batteries very fast. Got 4 18650 batteries and my Arctic eats them pretty quickly. Seems the Arctic needs the highest capacity you can get. Been looking on Ebay and seeing some unprotected 3000mAh ones, which I may yet get for my Arctic.
Yes, the batterie WL sending with the Arctic sucks, I had to load it 3 times till I have my Arctic. My O-Like 200mW greenie (bought in Nov 2009) still live on his 3rd battery-charge, and I used t a lot.
We should look for one of those batts, both free shipping:
