The red/black packaging has changeed . No idea what else has changed my E01 is from 2019. It has 3 mode (Low: 1lm / Medium: 20lm / High: 100lm) with hidden SOS mode. In this case it’s a slow flash barely distinguishable from change modes. It starts in lowest mode and resets to lowest mode after about 10 seconds. XP-G3 is notoriously bad looking but what can you do? Emitter swap is as straight forward as with other AAA lights.
I prefer the UI of E01 (L/ M /H ) over the asinine UI of Lumintop AAA (M / L / H )
” Quality Quester” on amazon gives a pretty good rundown of this light. On a particular note is the lack of LVP these have. It’s a vampire light. It will keep depleting the battery past 0.9v. Not good for NIHM though.
Unfortunately, Lightbringers cats will likely piss all over it, suggesting that you should Have listened to them to begin with and ponied up the extra $cratch for the much superior Mt. House brand stuff. Cats know such things.
Those buckets are tres handy (that’s french), but I wasn’t sure if I could get all the “stuff” outta the bucket to be able to use them for dry-storage of, say, Meow Food. The big 40lb bags are cumbersome.
