Has stopped working ๐Ÿ™ changed the batteries and now comes on when you push the button but switches off straight away.

Anyone else had this problem? Any ideas?

I had a problem with a vision 4 years ago, it was out of warranty. Hope fixed it for free! I phoned them and they just said send it back, we'll have a look. It returned a couple of days later ready to go!

Got to say, we pay through the nose for their stuff to buy British bling but by god they're good.

Funny you should say that - mine started doing exactly the same on Monday (made for an interesting commute home with my tiny backup light) - tried with different batteries etc beam just comes on momentarily when button pressed.Think I bought it in 2011.

Tempted to email Hope and see what the fix is.

My 3 yr old Vision 4 was doing a similar thing, wouldn't go from the lowest setting then flashed every few seconds. Hope said send it back & theyd have a look. Sent it back on a Monday afternoon, got it back Wednesday morning with a new charger FOC.
2 years out of warranty & they still sorted it for free!

Mine did the same - puzzled the bejeezus out of me until I realised I was missing the little foam insert on the cap that pushes the battery pack connections to the lamp end.

Stuck a poker chip in for the time being and it's working fine.
