    Inon D2000 problems

    After going on a dive trip far far away last month, I found out that I could not turn off the spoting light, no matter what I did. I had never had any issues with it before this. Never been flooded, or dropped. It usually pulsed for the correct time, then shut off, or stayed on if the switch...
