They will act just as any other tailswitch. So a multimode driver will remain multimode, and depending on the drivers use of ON time or OFF time memory etc it may or may not change modes after a single interruption.
I’m creating a new thread for this. Will link it once it’s made.
I can confirm that using it with my Conyoy lights (and Simon’s new ramping driver), that it acts the same. I have Simon install forward clicky switches for my hunting lights, so they will cycle IF you 1/2 click faster (with the foward clicky switch it comes with or the FET switch… acts the same). In general, they do fine with standard hunting use where after a few seconds off, if you hit the FET again- it does come up full output again (which I why I LOVE this driver- it’s perfect for a hunting light)!
I have some hunters who JUST want the forward clicky switch (they typically just mount to the left, front side of an AR rail where they hold the forward end— right next to the thumb where they prefer to just tap with the left thumb (if shooting right sided of course). One guy likes it on top of the scope where he’d prefer to just reach-up and work the light left handed (usually while on a rest or shooting sticks) where he just holds down on the light (Vs. the forward stock) when shooting (palm over it using the thumb again to work the light).
I have guys using them all kinds of ways, but most of us like the pressure switch IF it’s easy to work without the need for hard work to get it to light-up. I wrote Barry and Lan at Sofirn this morning asking for the switch they sold last year- sent a picture too. So we’ll see what they come up with and I’ll get back to this post with what I learn.
Exciting!!!
Simon informed me that the reflector isn’t as good as the L21A and it doesn’t focus properly. He’s waiting on the SFT40 to see if it’s okay using that LED.
Did you ever hear back from Sofirn?
