Just received mine, might make a review later on.
te.

UI sucks, there are 4 modes then strobe and sos or blink and you need to cycle through all of them.

I just lost my interest.

First impressions:

To turn on and off you need to hold the button down for like two seconds.
At least it has memory so you can just leave it on high and not have to see strobe when you want to turn it off.

Sounds like a bummer UI.

So, if you turn it off in High, turn it back on in High and then change modes, it goes to strobe? I really dislike having to go through blinky modes to get back to low.

Is there any way to directly access low from off?

I like the form factor of the light, but am not sure that I could tolerate the UI.

Also, are there any pocket clips that would work for this light? If I were to buy it, I would want to carry it clipped inside my back pocket.

I’m also considering the Wowtac A3S, but the 34mm diameter of it’s head deters me from having already bought it.

Yeah, always has to go through strobe
No pocket clip.
