I've got a Petzl Ultra here (one of the original sort) that seems to have a problem with the switch. I take the battery off, put it on charge and when the battery's fully charged replace the battery. Switch it on and nothing happens. On two occasions I've left the battery connected for a while (say a couple of hours), tried it again and it's then worked fine. In fact it works perfectly when it decides to work but it's not doing anything at all this afternoon. I've tried it with two different batteries and I know they're OK.
Has anyone had any success taking a Petzl Ultra apart? Seems a shame to just get rid when the LEDs are obviously working OK. If any of the people on here who make lights are familiar with the insides of an Ultra and fancy having a look I'd happily post it to you and make a reasonable contribution if you can fix it. Send me a PM if interested.
Cheers,
Jules.
