Hi, I bought an Ultrafire c12 around half a year ago.

the torch has served me well, but lately whenever I turn on my torch, it will either went full brightness, then became very dim, or has dimmed light straight away. I tried recharge my battery, but the problem persists.

all lighting modes have the same dimming problem.

I've checked my panasonic ncr18650pf during full charge, output is nominal (~3.8 V)

but sometimes the bringhtness of the torch has magically returned to normal

does anyone know what's the problem and the solution?

(PS: I usually do night riding with my torch always on full brightness)

contacts are unanodised

If the light operates normally, maybe its a faulty switch.
If not, either driver or switch.

how to break into the driver part?

I've tried connected the -ve to the tailcap and shorted the +ve to a metal surface, the torch is fixed, for now.

Is this problem usually happens for ultrafire torches?

it's usually when the retainer ring got loose, switch gets old or dirty contacts that this will happen

with my name engraved on it... rclxm9.gif

I think I'll keep the light pristine in the seal.

what's more, the hand-written greetings is simply heart warming...

What a lovely gift from Olight.
Really nice of them.
Is that the S Mini or S1?

Am thinking of getting the brass S Mini to complement my black S1
