As part of a somewhat older, medium-used, complete SF light. Not sure what it was called originally but a KM-3 head, the 6v body with the studs to attach to the QD pic mount, and a DS tailcap.
Battery was unexpectedly dead last week when I pulled it out. Then a few days ago with fresh batteries, I come down to the shop where the gun is laying waiting for some work, and it's dimly flickering on.
The pushbutton switch, on playing with it, is generally irregular. Doesn't just press-on then click to stay, but sometimes is dimly or flickering on before the click.
Does not SEEM to have any issues with partial activation or uncommanded activtion with the remote tape.
Anyway: expensive item to replace alone and without old receipts, etc. I assume no warranty. Is there any trick of cleaning, maintenance, etc I can do to this switch or just 1) suffer, or 2) replace?
