Reminds me a bit of the Thorens turntable I bought with money from my first real job. Replaced the original head with a light-weight version. And drilled a lot of vent-holes in it. All in the name of losing weight. The downside was that you needed to stay away when playing a record. Slip-stream, you know. The Thorens was not IP8, of course. But that did not matter, because it was not bought to be an EDC.
Momentary moon. Emitter comes on at the lowest level (ramp floor) while button is held, but stays off otherwise. Useful for quick tasks without unlocking.
Unlock. Click 4 times to exit lockout mode.
On items with a lighted button, it can also do this:
3 clicks: Change button brightness for lockout mode.
Click, click, hold: Change button brightness for regular “off” mode.
Agree that it’s not for this light. I am also torn between the original concept and the prototype with taper at the front.
I would be happy with either design.
I’m not torn. I didn’t like the minimalist first design. I do like the new design with a more aesthetically pleasing taper at the front. It makes a night-and-day difference to me. Then again, I don’t matter. I’m not on the list anyway.
