I been reading on this forum where people say the led navigational lights on the Surefire M900 will turn on and stay on if they get wet. What can i do to waterproof the exposed wires and interior? Is there some sort of spray i can use? Im sure if the led's stayed on the batteries would run out. I would also hate for them to come on at the wrong time. Any input is appreciated, thanks.

I don't know about any sprays but you could try a general waterproofing silicone adhesive - I think Loctite makes one. First I would recommend making sure all of the o-rings are in good shape and that the threads are clean aside from a small amount of an appropriate lubricant.

Ok, never thought of checking that. Lets say i find an o ring that looks to need replacing, go buy one, or is Surefire CS good enough that they will ship me a few? Ill be looking into that waterproofing adhesive, hopefully ill find one thats heat resistant and wont mess up the weaponglight.

Surefire should take care of it, just be sure call them though -their responsiveness to e-mails can be pretty hit or miss.
