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?
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:
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
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.
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…
I can imagine a good number of export house employees delaying or cutting short their Chinese new year celebrations to get product out the door after yesterday’s speech and their own country’s warnings to prepare for the worst.
