I just recieved my two. They are working fine. Very nice design. They even have a blinking side light for when the battery level is below 30%. I have not heard that before, so I thought Iād mention it.
My only minor issue is the coating on the springs is not fixed. On one spring I see several ares where itās peeling. The other spring has a couple of barely noticable spots. Maybe the next time I have my soldering iron out Iāll add a little bypass wire.
Got my T1 today as well. Figure Iāll give it to my son on his 11th birthday later in the month. The tint ramping is pretty dang cool, pick your poison as it wereā¦
recāed my 2, all I can say is WOW. Not that Iād want my kids to lose more lanterns but Iāve been supplying them
with the 3xAA lanterns; theyāre not worth the 3xAA Eneloops I put in them. And the Blitzwolfs, yea theyād be good night lights
I just got mine as well, Used it a little bit and now I have it charging. With the risk of sounding dumb :person_facepalming: I have a question, to turn off the light can you do it from the top metal switch or do you have to do it from the bottom (next to the tailcap) switch? I tried to turn it off from the top switch but it just kept changing color or brightness, maybe I just havenāt got the hang of it yet.
So, can someone tell me How do you turn it off using only the top switch? :student:
I received my light yesterday and it seems to have some issuesā¦
First is I canāt turn it off without totally removing the battery compartment cap (boy not having anodized threads for a lockout is annoying) but the bottom button doesnāt do anything. Seems like thereās a bad connection at the driver / button or a broken wire inbetween.
I was thinking I could spray paint the threads to try to make it so I could just crack the tail to shut it off. I like the light and definitely want to be able to use itā¦ Does that sound like itāll fix it make it usable?
Second (and it may be related) is that I canāt ramp brightness in the tint mixing mode. Have I just not figured out the UI yet or does ramping brightness in tint mode require that bottom button again (which wouldnāt be fixed by my proposed solution for shutting it off above)?
I really donāt want to try to open up a glued together plastic bodied lightā¦
agreed that the UI is wonky. Iād carry 2 with me, one in each cargo shorts side pocket and accidentally turned
on both of them. Glow in the dark undiesā¦ Iād prefer the top button to be the only button, click to power on/off, tap
to change modesā¦ but canāt complain about the performance and the magnet worked well hanging upside down.
My two ordered T1s have arrived. So far, everything works as it should. The only thing I would complain a bit about is this foggy, uneven light pattern when you look at the T1. I expected the milky glas to shine in the same brightness allover the lamp. Instead I see different shades of brightness. The top area is significantly darker than the side area of the lamp, no matter how much you turn up the brightness.
