Bit of a side topic, but I had a rear light that did this once, I fixed it by superglueing it to it's mount.
Batteries could be removed without taking the light off the bike.
If you needed to get rid of the light you could still do it by just removing the entire mount.

That's a bummer, I gave up on AA rear lights when I arrived home several times to find the battery had jostled itself out it's contacts and the light wasn't working.
Battery was still in the light but it was providing no power.
Builtin lithions don't do that so I switched.
Also since I keep my bike in the garage I just put the usb-charger next to the bike and hook it up after every time I'm done riding. Light is always charged, no more hassle of taking out and charging batteries.
