I'd use sutures, not a soldering iron if that is the case.I take that personally.

In the āmechanicalā age, WD40 was always the go-to product as first response to any product failure issue.
These days, the go-to product is Contact Cleaner. Spray cleaner, maybe rub with a cotton bud or similar, around switches, connections and battery terminals, and many electronic devices will burst back into life.

But when you are in desperate need the can will be empty.
The torch with get in a strop and fail to even flicker to enable you to remove to trapped bits.

But you always need a 2nd torch to see to fettle the 1st. Just like you need two pairs of reading glasses...

Don't worry Murphy has that one covered as well.

Why do so many torches have a menu? I like a torch with a simple on/off switch, not something that wants me to select dim or bright, or signal SOS. Grrr.

Caving quality head torch preferably with a red light option. But they are not cheap. Best when singlehanded as you will blind crew with the beam.
My routine torches are a 99p magnetic led one and a Clarke led work torch. Normal batteries last a season but they are not bright like a Cree led head torch.
