Okay so I've ran into an issue with my Dive Rite MK11 HID light. It wont turn on.
I've had this light for about a month now, maybe a little more. Its got about 11 or 12 dives to it. Last time I dove with it was Sunday. The light DID NOT get flooded and worked fine.
So I accently left it hooked uP for 4 days before taking it out. When I tried to turn it on I seen the bulb flicker ever soo slightly and give out like the battery was dead. So I left it on for the 43 minute dive and still no luck. I went home and charged the battery for 8+ hours. It did the same thing. So I took it apart, and checked the inside of the light head, no condensation, no water, no corrosion, nothing. Every thing checked out. Ressembled it, tried it again. Nothing. I charged it for another 4 hours tonight and when I came home from shopping and I tried it again, its doing the same thing.
When I look into the bulb, the light flickers a little like it wants to and goes out.
So what is wrong with this HID, how might I be able to fix it etc...?
