Clone of On The Road M3 ~$13

That’s the jaxmnve clone. Jimmy_Chimichanga said the On The Road M3 was on sale for $18. That is what I was asking about.

Sorry. Old timers kicking in. :person_facepalming:

Thanks for your answers XXX-Man!

So for sure you cannot enter ramping with a double click directly from off?

.

Thought this meant it did but guess not :expressionless:

MascaratumB, Thanks for your answers.

In an earlier post you wrote:

What exactly did you mean by that?

.

In freeme’s vid it appears when ramping reaches max or min it doesn’t blink or pause, it just immediately reverses direction. So no pause when reaches min. and no blinking when it reaches max. :expressionless: :expressionless:

.

By this do you mean if you stop and then restart the ramping it will continue in the same direction as before you stopped? I only have one light with ramping and that’s what it does, so that seems normal to me. Do other ramping UI’s do something different?

Please tell us where?

I can get the OTR M3 full kit for about $9 more, but only in CW right now.

Thanks for your answers.

Ya 1x or 2x would be too cold for me and 5c (3800-4000k) probably too warm.

This is one reason this JAXMNVE M3 appeals to me, it has NW 3C which should be around 5000k

It does not register a double click from off. It sees it as 2 seperate clicks.

So when starting in ramping it begins with LOW by default, but if a specific level was memorized it starts on that memorized level, correct?

You are correct in your assumption.

In Narsil you can easily reverse direction if you want. With this jaxmnve you just have to let it do what it wants.

So double click from off does nothing, from what I can tell.

Would’ve been real nice if they made it enter ramping with a double click from off - for quick access to your desired (memorized) level.

You can? Where?

I only see it for $18 more.

Yes

You misunderstand.

A double click from off turns it on at the last used level then advances it to the next level.

Once you leave the ramping mode, the memory is lost. It memories every level. If you turn it off in strobe, it comes on in strobe. If you turn it off while it’s ramping, it turns on and continues ramping.

Beam0, aren’t these questions moot since there appears to be a new UI and you can’t buy the old ones any more?

No, the new UI only changed the 3-mode group from MED-HIGH-STROBE to LOW-MED-HIGH, ramping should still be the same.

New UI:

Post #923 - scroll down about halfway - it’s next to the Convoy L6’s:

So the “ramping memory” comes on at the level you stopped ramping at, but doesn’t stay there? It just starts ramping again from that point?

If that’s what it does then ramping memory on this is pretty useless.

Then how is there ramping memory?

It’s not “ramping memory”, it’s memory in general.
You have to turn the light off while in ramping mode, then it will turn on at the same level it was turned off at.

Your missing the details. I didn’t say it was stopped. I said the light was turned off while it was still going up and down. Whatever the light is doing when it’s turned off, it continues doing when turned back on.

If it’s in the ramping mode and stopped at a certain level and you turn it off, it will turn back on at that same certain level.

Does that make sense?

As it was said before, the ramping feature of this light is not very good. I would much prefer a simple low, med, high. Like 10 lumen, 150 lumen and 500 lumen. That’s all you need. Right now it’s like 150 lumen and 500 lumen. It could use a lower level.
