Cool, I hope so soon! I had to buy a different headlamps while waiting, for a trip, but we’d still love to get a couple working driver models of the Wizard at a good price!
1. Yes, all Wizards with the new UI will be after the current promotion.
2. There are not exact terms yet. We will inform you here as soon as the Wizard headlamps will be updated.
3. The current warm version of Wizard is not with the updated UI 1.5
4. The updated version 1.5 will not have the reported PWM flicker in moonlight (firefly mode).
At what time will "first generation" Wizard Pro's sent back for updating be flashed with the V1.5 firmware? Just wondering how long I need to wait. I'm not in a hurry.
Where does it claim that? I see Canadian development and engineering, some American and Japanese electronic components, but nothing about where it's manufactured. That seems more honest than their closest competitor.
The flashlights are developed and engineered by Armytek Optoelectronics Inc., Canada. Made with USA and Japan electronics components.
All items are shipped from our storehouse in China.
Thank you very much for this succinct and quick response to my questions. More often than not questions are left unanswered.
look forward to the Wizard Pro.
(also going to try my luck again) Will switch pressure remain the same? and is there a way for it to be reduced for those without super finger strength. If this involves irreversible modifications, I am still interested
I think this question has already been put forward but I don't believe there are any plans to change it. okwchin, you may find that the switch "softens" a little after some use - a couple of us in the CPF threads felt that it did.
It is also greatly affected by how you place your finger. Direct pressure downwards on the switch yields much better results than being even a little off-center. Try it with the tip of your index finger rather than the wider ball of the thumb for instance and I think you will see what I mean. It took me a few tries to realise just how much difference finger placement could make.
On the other hand, there was also speculation that there may be a variance between units. I don't really subscribe to this theory as I think Armytek's build quality would be pretty consistent, but I guess it may be possible. The problem is that it's a really subjective thing.
