How it works (&modes) :

UI : Ultra low – Low – Medium – High and hidden Strobe – Sos – Beacon mode

Single click (short) turns light on , on the lowest mode
Longer click turns light on , on the last used mode (not available for ultra low mode , because you can access it with short click)
Double click turns light on strobe (you enter hidden modes)

From on :

If you are in a regular mode :
Single click cycles between (Ultra Low – Low – Medium – High)
Double click and you’re in Strobe

If you are in a hidden mode :
Single click cycles between (Strobe – SOS – Beacon)
Double click and you’re in last used regular mode

Runtimes :

Actual tested Runtimes (will be updated as i test in more modes) :

High (Efest 14500) : 42 minutes (until first “LVP” warning)
When battery voltage is below 3V drops to the lowest mode

High (Eneloop AA) : 55 minutes (until shutdown)
Medium (Eneloop AA) : 1hr 40 minutes (until shutdown)
When battery voltage is equal or below 1V shuts down

Light has programmable output levels for every mode . Here is a how-to :

1) Open the flashlight , navigate on the highest mode , and turn off the light
2) Press the button until it blinks two times (it will open in highest mode , and flash 2 times after 7-8 seconds)
3) After it blinks twice , release the switch and double click again (It will enter strobe , beacon etc and a constant current output level & regular modes )
4) Now navigate with single (short) click to the lowest mode
5) It will ramp through 3 different output levels . Single click confirms selected output level of mode and goes to the next one
6) Do the same for all the modes , and when you are in strobe turn off the light with a “long” click .
