Inforce apl battery drain?

I got a new holster today so i was test fitting my mp9 w inforce apl on it, its been sitting in my safe not being used and the battery was dead? I have used it hardly at all it just sits in my safe.

The Inforce WML has been reported to have battery drain. I don't know about the APL. I was going to buy a WML until I heard about the Battery drain problem. I don't want a light that drains batteries. I know that some handhelds that use electronic controls drain their batteries slowly. But having a weapon light drain is not acceptable IMHO.

Maybe someone can tell us if Inforce has fixed the problem.

Do a google search Inforce battery drain

I also have an apl on an m&p9, and have found it with a dead battery once.
I think it was on its side engaging the light while in a range bag.

Scott, i have a WML and it has had a strong battery for about 2 years, ive had the apl for about 6 months and im on my 3rd battery

Sent them an email they are going to repair or replace it

[camaroguy2012]

Well im sending it in to get fixed, hopefully they have corrected the issue

My WML (single function) doesn't appear to have any issues with battery drain.

I recently pulled one out for a training session on flashlights for the employees - hadn't touched it since the same class last year - fired right up. That was about three months back. Picked it up this morning to look under the couch for the cat's toy, no issues.

So mine has had the same battery for at least 15 months.

Yes my WML has had the same battery going on 2 years, my almost brand new APL is on its 3rd battery
