I always knew my fasttech sourced brass Sentinel clone was not invincible. I always imagined the 510 connectors would be the issue - either getting stripped or warped or something.
I accidently dropped my sentinel off a 3 foot high table onto a wood floor and this is what happened!
Sorry for the crappy picture but hopefully you can see one of the 2 outer body sections sheared in 2.
Dang! I liked that mod, too. It was horrible to keep clean and the button/lockout ring were crap but it performed really well. It had a much lower voltage drop than my Magneto and the difference in performance was quite noticeable. I can still use it with 18500's but I'm going to have to get another one. For the $$ I paid I would definitely get another one even though this one was annoying and broke, lol. Oh yeah ...and ugly. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, of course, but I thought this was the ugliest mod ever made.
