What, exactly, does loosening the head do in this type of light? My aux lights slowly ramp off, and the tail switch activates these weird, random momentary ramping (sometimes flashing) modes. I can’t find them on any Andúril ui chart.

Here is a relevant comment from Toykeeper.

Emisar KR4 stuck in strange mode

If the tail is loose, power isn’t connected. However, a small amount of power can trickle through the switch, so pressing the switch powers up the light even when the tail is loose. When the switch is held at boot time, the light enters factory reset mode. This mode ramps up while blinking, for about 3 seconds, as a warning… then performs a reset and ramps back down. The user can about the reset by letting go early. So… because the tail was loose, the light was basically stuck in factory rese…

When the head is loosened, main power is disconnected. However, small amount of power through the switch can power up the light. In this state, the light is in reset mode. If you keep pressing the switch while the main power is disconnected, it will begin reset procedure after blinking for about 3 seconds.

If you loosen the head of TS10, your light will not turn on (and drain the battery). But it can reset the light if pressed more than 3 seconds.

I have seen this behavior in KR4 and TS10, but NOT in FW3A. My FW3A switch is completely disabled when I loosen the head.
