I received one of my DS-125's back from repair with a rattle like you describe. Suspect it had taken some rough handling during shipping. I was loathe to open that end of the assembly; I sent it back; Ikelite advised me it would not affect the light's function -- nonetheless they repaired it and returned it to me without charge. My guess is they would do the same in your case.

Hi,

You might want to do a search in the archives - this topic has been covered before.

( one of mine rattles one does not - my pictures are still crap ).

One of my DS-125's rattles as you described. Mine started about 2 weeks after coming back from Ikelite warranty service. I have been using it as is for almost a year now and everything seems to work fine. Doesn't seem to be worth returning for repair but the noise is annoying.
