@flashlight I may have overheated my brass TS10. The battery wrap shrank.

I used it continuously in candle mode @ high with the original silicone diffuser for a video shoot, and found the battery looking like that, opening the light right after stepdown (and almost burning my fingers).

Been looking for a primary source but the manual doesn’t specifically mention candle mode, only tactical strobe

Tactical strobe Disorienting strobe light. Can be used to irritate people. Speed is configurable, and the duty cycle is always 33%. Be careful about heat in this mode, if using it for a long time.

And then other places people mention this also applies to candle mode (like this BLF post).
