Consumer Description

ON A LOG ROAD TRIP, I HAD TO HAVE MY HEADLAMPS ON FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME. THE SWITCH(MULTIFUNCTION LEVER) GOT VERY HOT AND STARTED SMOKING. I KNOW YOU DID A TEST ON THIS; HOWEVER, I FEEL THIS PRESENTS A HAZARD FOR A POTENTIAL ACCIDENT AS YOU HAVE TO TURN OFF THE LIGHTS TO GET HOME, WHEN YOU'RE IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE, AS I WAS, BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY A FIRE HAZARD. *NLM
