Not any more or less of a safety issue than every other compact light that gets that bright. That might light coming out of a small thing with a flammable object right in front of it will result in some smoke or fire.

I suggest you contact Wuben. See what troubleshooting steps they recommend.

It’s been 48hrs. Is r/flashlight coming back or has the mod team decided to make the blackout indefinite?

Have you found a throwy TIR that fits and produced a nice beam with domeless LED’s? If so, I might want to have you upgrade my FW1X to have aux and a TIR.

Whoa what’s the pink LED?

What’s the bottom one? It looks a bit like a Zebralight but I haven’t been into lights long enough to know for sure.

I don’t have any steel wool on hand to test with. I do know that the full battery voltage can be measured through the charging contacts.

If shorting the contacts can cause a fire then it’s definitely a safety concern. I don’t know if it will or not.

This just wouldn’t be r/flashlight without you and your M150’s.

Wait…
