I like the 5-300lm ramp muggle mode. If they don’t hold the switch, then they’ll never know it’s ramping capability and it will behave as a single mode.
Is muggle mode retained through cell changes?
1 please.
Looks fantastic and would give my HG2’s a proper workout.
My first post too - hi to everyone in BLF.
I find the light very interesting, but I’m not yet committed to buy it. So far I’m not in.
Thank you.
If you decide, post it.

Thanks TK!! :+1:
I’m in the fewer blinks camp, I’m voting B and C.
Thank you.
and apologies.

Sorry for my bad English

Add OKCorey to the list
Interested. Thanks!
Speadge wants two. Thanks!
I agree on the training wheels muggle mode. Should be easy to get acquainted with, and for those who have difficulty with it would act as a very simple on and off mode
Please add me to the list for one.
I vote B, C and D.
Muggle Level - 3
I didn’t even know this was a thing (the blue and green humps). I guess I’m not sensitive to it or never noticed it. Are there any videos that show this?
No. Most settings are saved, but muggle mode stops when power is disconnected (or when the battery is empty). It is otherwise locked in, though.
I wanna change my votes! I want A, B, C, D blinks!
I was using my D4 and realized how much I rely on visual information given by the blinks! Please, ToyKeeper, add my votes also on A and B (as I previously voted on C and D only)!
Thanks! :+1:
Maukka’s reviews include data on tint shift at different power levels. I also showed the effect a while back on the BLF-A6. This clip shows an A6 switching between 150 lm on the 7135 channel and 150 lm on the FET channel, with each channel used by itself. The brightness stays the same but the color changes:

I took pictures at the time too, with white balance and exposure locked. Same light, same emitter, same brightness, even the same specks of dust on the lens, but different power channels producing different tints:
I don’t mind the blinks, happy to have all 4 (A, B, C, D)
Blink option running vote tally…
As a reminder, the options are: (where in the ramp to blink)
- A. Floor
- B. ~150 lm, level 65/150
- C. ~1000 lm, level 130/150 (highest regulated level)
- D. Ceiling
Results: (31 votes)
- A: 41.9%
- B: 59.7%
- C: 80.6%
- D: 58.1%

Sorry, I don’t mean to get to off topic, but what the heck is causing this phenomenon?
The FET is constant high voltage that is pulsing to create the lower brightness, right?
What is happening on the 7135 channel?
Why would the tint shift like that?
