Just got the Sofirn Sp10v3 yesterday, took it out for a walk had it on maybe 10-15 mins. With both the Sofirn 14500 battery and an alkaline AA when i walked back home i had the 14500 in it, i used it on the walk back home mainly on high mode and sometimes on turbo so it got a bit warm, but not too much. So when i arrived home the sp10v3 was warm i just thought thats normal my other lights also get warm and put it on the cupboard. the light was off of course.. then i ate something, 45minutes later i wanted to look at the flashlight again, and it didnt turned on, i noticed it was still pretty warm but the light was off and was not turning on.. i swapped the 14500 battery for the alkaline AA i used before outdoor on the walk and it also didnt turned on.. i tried a brand new AA battery, and it still did not turn on. Then i charged the 14500 battery to the max and put it in the sp10v3 and it turned on and it worked normally, i turned it off and left it on the cupboard awhile, and again the whole body got pretty warm but it was off ! Its also still not working with an AA like it worked before on the walk outside. Does anynone know what happened why its not working correctly anymore ?
What should i do now ? Open a Dispute on Aliexpress or write Sofirn just a message. im unfamiliar with this and i dont know if its considered as rude if i directly open a dispute ?
What a shame.. overall i really liked this flashlight, i wanted to give it my grandma as a gift, she wanted to use it with AA batterys…
I took some photos too..
