I don't seem to have that problem. Maybe it's some flashing from when the part was made or the spring might be weak?

I find that the booster works nicely on the commander if you put the barrel of the booster into the peg. I know you mentioned this in your starhammer review

Does the led actually do a good job of lighting up the drill, or is it just weak and rubbishy?

It only illuminates the first 'base segment' of the drill - i.e. the one that it's directly plugged into. The light fails to pipe into any other part of the drill.

I've yet to see a single LED gimmick in TF Prime that I've been even remotely satisfied with. They're all rubbish IMO.

Cool, thanks for the update. If the gimmick managed to the whole drill, I'd be inclined to grab it, but in that case I think it's an easy pass.
