I had an LBS tell me to bring the light back when this happened to me. PB claims that the superflash is waterproof. One problem. The casing on the old design had holes in the bottom of it, which let water in. Mine worked when it wanted to after a few rain storms. Drying out didn't really guarantee return to normal performance. I think PB has changed the design of the switch on the new lights.
