General Comments
There are a few things that some of you complaining about the "switch" should consider. First, the FAQ on www.maglite.com for the Mini Maglite LED Flashlight 2-Cell AA addresses most of these concerns. Also, you may not be aware that the light has four modes; 1) on, 2) half power, 3) flash, and 4) SOS. If you turn the light on and then off and back on quickly it will be in half power mode. If you turn it off and back and again quickly it will flash. Do it one more time at it will flash 3 times quickly, 3 times slowly, and 3 times quickly. Also, when the batteries begin to get low the light will shut off. If you turn the light off, wait a few minutes, and then turn it on again the batteries will recover slightly and it will work for a short time before turning off again. This is by design and does not work like the old incandescent lights. The FAQ shows how to clean the contact on the switch and how to tweek the contact on the tailcap. http://www.maglite.com/pdf/CustServ/Mini%20Maglite%20LED%20FAQ5222007805552.pdf
