I haven’t used any Rofis lights but no light with hold-for-cycle I’ve used has been anywhere close to fast enough to overshoot what I want. I do like how fast you can cycle them with rapid taps on tail-switch lights and the dual-switch TO50R I have though.
Definitely needs to be clarified if the light will have hold for moonlight/low also. The standard for any e-switch light should be: hold for lowest mode, double click for highest mode, single click for memory.
Good idea. If the FC11 becomes highly demanded, this could definitely be an option in the future, e.g. military tan / "dark earth".
I will soon receive a prototype sample that I can test. So far, I was told that moonlight is not available from OFF. The good news is that Wurkkos and Sofirn are always open-minded to suggestions, so I will collate all your input together with the impressions I will get from the sample and report them back to the manufacturer. They will thoroughly check each single improvement for cost effectiveness and feasibility.
Does anyone actually use electronic lockouts in the real world? I ALWAYS use a tail cap lockout. I suspect the lack of hold for moonlight is because they’re using the “hold” UI option for the mode change which, IMHO, is dumb. I’d much rather see the quad click used for mode change and “hold” for moonlight.
Either way, this and the YLP Unicorn are very interesting lights to me as EDC and gift lights. Sadly, I probably won’t give away any Unicorns since it doesn’t have built in charging.
I use electronic lockout all the time when I’m pocket carrying an eswitch light. All my eswitch lights are Andruil so it’s easier for me to do 4 clicks with one hand than to twist the tailcap. I also have momentary when electronically locked out where a mechanically locked out light has to be “unlocked” to get any light.
