once a year I email my favorite flashlight manufacturer to ask if they’ve finally made a flashlight that just turns on and off when you push the button, and every year they’re like, “no, but thanks so much for your feedback!”
be honest, have any of you ever used the flashing feature on your flashlight? did it actually come in handy? handy enough that I have to scroll past it every single time I want to turn my flashlight on or off
My go to light for work is a Streamlight Protac 2L-X. It has a few modes to set it up how you prefer. Plain bright. Low, bright. Bright, strobe. Rechargable 18650 but you have to take the battery out to plug a usb into it but it lasts a loong time between charges so I don’t mind
Strobe is great for raves, self defense and epilepsy tests! (jk)
how do you change the mode?
It’s called 10 tap. So quickly half press (not clicking) the button 10 times, then press and hold. It goes to the next mode preset.
For normal use clicking the button is the first mode (low) and half press then click for the second (high)
like this (skip about halfway)
