Problems with my Zebralight headlamp

[silenthunterstudios]

I've got a 1080+ lumen headlamp from Zebralight, great light. I am half blind at night, and prefer the highest setting. I walk a mile at night, and usually use the 600 setting so I don't have to recharge my 18650 from Zebralight. I don't have the model number, but it is the regular white light flashlight. When the batteries are low, it has a hard time cycling from low to 600, or changing to 1080 lumens. In the past I've recharged the battery and cycled through the settings until it corrects itself. Now its stuck on the highest setting somewhere between 600 and 1000. When I try to change it to 1000, it changes a little bit, enough to tell the difference, but it remains stuck. I've recharged the 18650 several times, and have tried to change the lumen setting. I primarily use the lamp for walking, and I walk on old country roads. I'm not worried about blinding passing cars, I just don't want to lose the light in the middle of my hike. I haven't contacted Zebralight yet. I have used this light in pouring rain and wet snow, and sleet etc. I've also dropped it a few times on the road or on a concrete floor.

Try taking out the battery and letting it sit a day or so. That fixed a similar problem I had with one of their AA lights.

Why?? That would have been my first stop, email.
