What happens if you brush the charging pad with steel wool?

Other magnetic charging Skilhunts I've used will spark and can even ignite the steel wool. They're not as bad as older Olights (the current shuts off very quickly), but it's still my opinion that lights shouldn't have live contacts on the outside and I'm hoping they've fixed it.

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.

Great review! I got the H300 recently and I love it. I was upgrading from my H04 mini LH351D and torn between the full H04 519A or the H300. I got the H300 on a deal and I'm very, very pleased. Super pleasant beam that lasts a long time.

Glad you like the review! It's definitely a suitable upgrade over an H04.
