Additional Manufacturer Narrative

|
The duo headlight and carrying case (90600) was returned for evaluation.Failure analysis - the returned duo headlight was in used condition.Evaluation identified that the headlight power cord was shorted, leading to the light flickering.The issue of a "short" refers to poor connection of the power pins that can potentially result in a failing connection to the battery port.No risk of harm would be incurred by this type of short, and the low voltage would not cause a hazard.Root cause analysis: the reported complaint was confirmed.It was determined that this failure was most likely due to routine use and wear.No manufacturing, workmanship, or material deficiency has been identified.
