Any flashlight that uses non-rechargeable batteries, IE... AAA, AA, C, or D batteries. If it is not used on a regular basis and sits for a long time with the batteries still in it, the batteries will leak and damage the flashlight. It is recommended that if the flashlight is not going to be used for long periods of time, that you remove the batteries to avoid leakage into the flashlight. This also is recommended for anything that uses this type of battery. These types of batteries are known leakers.
Hello, Jacob -
I am guessing that your flashlight uses a rechargeable battery or batteries. If so . . . if you have not already done so, have you replaced the rechargeable battery or batteries with a new one / new ones?
Rechargeable batteries do not last forever and eventually need to be replaced with fresh ones. It would help in advising you to know the make and model of your flashlight. To provide that information, you can choose Comment and type the information in the Comment box. Best wishes.
To my knowledge all you have to do is screw off the lid at the back and replace the batteries some of these flashlights comes with a charger some doesn't
I've owned this flashlight for years.Grasp the whole front of the lamp piece (including the rubber cover), and
twist in a counter-clockwise direction to remove. Then squeeze
together the two black tabs and pull the battery compartment out to
replace the batteries.
