I put a fully charged battery (Vapcell H10) in the light, installed the tailcap, hit click and nothing happened. Thought i maybe somehow installed the cell backwards so I took it out, it was installed correctly, so I put it back in. Tried to turn it on again and i started to hear a whining noise coming from the tail cap and it also became very hot very fast. Luckily I got the battery back out before anything catastrophic happened.
Obviously I'm going to contact Vinh but what do you guys think happened? Cell was fully charged and also came with the light. I had to leave for work so I couldn't mess with it much. Is my light torched? Do I risk trying it again? Use a different battery?

It kinda sounds like there’s a hard short in the switch. Also, where’d you get the ring?
99% issue is the H10, not the flashlight.
Some batches of H10 were known for issues like losing voltage and getting hot. Probably it’s one of those.
