Thanks. Another idea I had for the Convoy UI was to replace the SOS mode with a slower signaling strobe or signaling beacon. Unless you’re an adventurer going far away from civilization, SOS mode is pretty useless to be in a normal mode change cycle. Instead I would really hide it by requiring the user to cycle through their current mode group twice to activate SOS.
A signaling strobe or beacon is more useful than SOS when you want to get someone’s attention, but you don’t want to use the disorienting strobe which would be too fast and confusing for the person.
A note for Woytas: It might be worth specifying what moon means.
In general, “moon” mode is used for anything from about 0.1 lm to 1.0 lm. “Firefly” mode is roughly 0.01 lm to 0.10 lm. A 10 lumen mode is generally just called “low”.
Thank you for clarifying that. I’ve read somewhere on the forum (don’t remember where) that moonlight is between 1-8 lumens and stick to that. But I trust your opinion.
My personal preference for “moonlight” (or rather ultralow?) is somewhere between 1-5 lm. Firefly is far too low for me to be useful.
