Bravo to everyone who’s helped figure this stuff out.
Whatever the drama may be surrounding any of these lights, I still feel that this forum serves the purpose (well) of keeping its membership informed.
When somebody is telling me that I shouldn’t buy something and/or somebody else is insisting that what I may purchase is indeed “disgusting” (see this thread)…then the gloves are indeed off in terms of any opinion expressed there after and all subsequent comers frankly ‘welcomed’ (in my opinion).
I just got mine yesterday and I like it a lot. No switch problems so far and the only thing I’ve noticed is that it won’t go into turbo with a worn-out non-Enloop NiMh battery that isn’t fully charge. I’m guessing that’s a current related issue but it’s worked fine with better cells.
On the programming after I double-click on step 3 and it enters strobe do I then click through the blinkies to get to the lowest mode? If so does it automatically ramp up and repeat the ramping in the lowest mode until I click to select the level and then move to the next one?
Thanks
Hi SigShooter,
I thought I’d answer your question since it looks like everyone else is busy, but Yes, do cycle past the strobe until you get to the low and then it’s Yes again to your question, it will continue to ramp/cycle through the 3 different output options until you click on one of the levels and then it will automatically go to the next mode and will do the same thing again, choose your mode and then it goes again to next mode and until you end up at strobe again.
I had actually came back to clarify a misstatement I made to Freedom regarding the driver and MCPCB, I stated that this driver and emitter board with switch was all one piece, one component, well I misspoke as it is “NOT” all one piece,
In order to remove the driver you would have to de-solder the MCPCB and then the driver will easily come out being it’s pressed in and not really very tight and along with the switch also, this is a integrated shelf light, with a two layer stacked driver and separate MCPCB.
I’m sorry if my mistake caused anyone a problem, sure hope not,
Edit: By the way Thanks Jerommel for the heads up on Everbuying & UT01 and it’s only a few dollars more than GB price, wow,
I’m buying about 4 more, yep thanks to George I have bought a lot of these little lights, there awesome IMHO, so from now on I’m watching George like a flashlight Hawk, … :laughing:
Hi T18,
Thanks for your quick response. I probably should have just done it but I figured knowing how it works before doing it couldn’t hurt.
It’s a nice light and safe to lend to others given that it is fairly bright on a single NiMh. I should get a few more 
I wonder if solarstorm made this light 3 of there lights I have bought have this exact issue lol They are a main supplier also.
Your quit welcome SigShooter, and yes most certainly a friendly enough light to lend, simple operation for sure, but perhaps to nice to lend to someone who might like flashlights so much they may not want to give it back… ha ha,
That Everbuying store that Jerommel linked in China is a good fair price also, , http://www.everbuying.net/product1220293.html

Received mine today. No issues, great little thing
Thanks for the group buy!
Man, I still haven’t received mine! Ordered on Dec. 11th. :cry:
Is it untracked ?
One of my orders from gearbest arrived after 58 days from the day i made it …
Received my 2nd one today which was ordered on Dec 30th.
maybe that’s one of the disadvantages of unregistered parcels, you wait a loooooong period of time and pray that your precious light is not yet stolen by some crooked customs personnel, since it has no tracking number / proof of delivery.
Yeah, I chose the free shipping. If I haven’t received it by the middle of February, I will be forced to contact Paypal. :person_facepalming:
I always get upgraded shipping. It’s isually like a buck or less. Maybe $1.50. Mine came quick, 2wks
Interested in CW
thanks
I have only lost 1 package from gearbest from quite a lot untracked orders . Shipping without tracking isn’t actually slower . Only in Christmas there was a bit of delay…
Flash deal , UT01 16.99$
Thanks for the heads up. :+1:
