Loop Gear SK06 Hidden Menu

White Light Menu - low mode only

Changing this will also adjust the brightness of the side light low and RGB. Reducing the output lower than two steps below the default will result in the low level flickering.

• Rotate switch to side light

• Unscrew tailcap

• Tighten the tailcap whilst holding the switch until the side light flashes 3x amber colour

• Rotate switch to white light mode

• 1x press to start, shows 3x red flashes

• Each press increases/decreases brightness

• 3x press changes direction (3x blue flashes = decrease / 3x red = increase)

• 2x press saves output, 3x amber flashes

• 2x press exit, 3x cyan flashes + 1x slow

Laser Class 1 & 3R Menu

• Rotate switch to laser

• Unscrew tailcap

• Tighten the tailcap whilst holding the switch. 3x red flashes shows class 3R, 3x green shows class 1 enabled.

• 1x press changes between class 1 & class 3R

• 2x & 3x press saves and exits with 3x cyan flashes + 1x slow

Note: If the lower power group is selected in the Laser Group Menu, 3x green flashes disables the high level.

Mine was a class 1 unit, but it may have been configured at the factory in the lower power group, so I had to first switch groups to unlock the 3R laser output.

Laser Group Menu

• Rotate switch to side light

• Unscrew tailcap

• Tighten the tailcap whilst holding the switch until the side light flashes 3x amber colour

• Rotate switch to the laser mode

• 1x press to start, shows 3x amber flashes

• 4x press changes between groups (1 - 3R group = green flashes / lower power group = cyan flashes)

• Hold cycles between two levels in each group

• 2x press saves the selected group, 3x amber flashes

• 2x press exits, 3x cyan flashes + 1x slow

Note: After the 4x press step, a 3x press results in 3x blue flashes, not sure what that indicates.

Starting on the side light and switching to the UV, 3x green flashes, 1x press flashes magenta with regular strobe following.

There’s 4 accessible laser brightness levels excluding moonlight.

Factory Setting
• Class 1 = Single Level
• Class 3R = Class 1 & Class 3R available to cycle between.

Then a separate lower power group.

Edit: Figured it out. Doing the 4x click to go into the high mode in the config meny basically enabled a high mode I can use regularly.

Now in regular operation, the laser has a medium and high I can cycle between, while before there was only medium.
I had to do the full operation a few times until it “stuck”. It did always start in the medium mode, so I don’t know when exactly the high was “unlocked” as hold did nothing in regular laser mode the first few times I tried.

Anyway, one step closer to permanent eye damage!

Hi, so I can’t get this to work properly on my SK06 Ti I received today.
Mine arrived as a class 1 laser.
I do the following:

  • Rotate to sidelight, unscrew tailcap.
  • Hold button, screw on tailcap, see three amber flashes
  • Rotate to laser, click button once, se three amber flashes, laser turns on
  • Click 4 times to see which “mode” I’m in, see either 3 cyan or 3 green flashes. Make sure I am in the mode with green flashes that shines the brightest.
  • Hold button to cycle laser brightness until I am on the higher of the two
  • 2x click, see three amber flashes
  • 2x click again, se three cyan flashes and one slow flash.
    However, when I do the first 2x click, the laser dims a fair bit, pretty sure it goes to the lower of the two modes, and that is the brightness I get when I have 2x clicked twice and the light goes back into normal operation.

It seems it either forgets what I set it to, or it goes to the lower (class 1?) mode by itself. It’s very hard to say specifically, but it seems like the other mode is about twice as bright as the class 1 mode to my eyes. I don’t know the exact wattages, but it makes sense to me that the mode it was shipped to me in and the only mode I can see from the light outside of the config menu is the class 1 mode.

Sounds like you skipped the Laser Group Menu to first switch to the higher power group. Heard another person see the same behaviour when going straight into the Laser 3R Toggle Menu. I think mine behaved the same as I was figuring out what everything did. It increases in output but reverts upon saving.
