I've got a Graflite #2773. The black cap at the bottom is screwed into a short metal tube which, in turn, slides into the main body of the flash. Only one problem - when there are batteries in the unit, the spring pushes the short, threaded tube and black cap off. Any ideas? How is this supposed to work?

Thanks,
Brett

Whoa there. The 2773 battery case takes 3 batteries. You unscrew the black cap at the botton, put them in, then screw the cap back on the CASE. I don't know what this "short metal tube that slides into the {case]" is. There were battery extensions which allowed one to add an extra battery to the case, but they screwed onto the case, and couldn't slide up into it. There is a liner inside the case, but it doesn't screw to anything. Try removing the cap from that tube, and see if it will screw onto the case when filled with 3 batteries. The spring is necessary to make the right electrical contact.
