Greenhornet, you said "batteries" What type of batteries are you trying to use? You should be using a single 18650 battery if you are using rechargeable.
Might be possible to use a pair of 16340? The higher voltage won't always work in lights that have multi mode switch. I have 4 of the G4 and have used the 18650 or (2) CR123 NON rechargeable in them with no problems.
I did receive one from Gadget Town that had a loose connection somewhere and you sometimes had to bump it to get it to come on. I emailed them and they replaced it with not problems. They are a great company to deal with.
