off. A press-and-hold from off will act in a momentary fashion when
Pseudo Momentary is enabled – i.e., turning off your flashlight when
the button is released. When Pseudo Momentary is disabled, a press-
and-hold from off acts like a click – i.e., your flashlight remains on
when the button is released.
True Momentary – <double-flash>
The True Momentary feature allows your flashlight to operate in a true
momentary mode – when the button is pressed, your flashlight is on
maximum, when the button is released, your flashlight is off. When
the True Momentary feature is enabled and your flashlight is turned
off, a hex-click will start the true momentary operating mode.
The true momentary mode is used for tactical "flash and dash"
techniques – a burst of light to illuminate your opponent and the scene
followed by you disappearing into the darkness, depriving your
opponent of a target. The true momentary mode also ensures that if
you should drop your flashlight, it will remain off and not provide your
opponent with a ready target.
Your flashlight can be returned to normal operation by opening the
battery compartment for 60 seconds to force a reset.
Burst – <brighter-dimmer>
The Burst feature allows you to control the behavior of the maximum
level to conserve power and extend runtimes. Your flashlight will drop
by one level 40 seconds after the button has been released when
Burst is enabled. Maximum always stays at full power for as long as
the button is held down.
Note: the runtime on the maximum level will be reduced when Burst is
disabled. You will also notice that your flashlight becomes quite warm
on the maximum setting and may automatically reduce power due to
thermal limiting. This is normal.
Menus – <dim-to-bright-ramp>
The Menus feature allows you to control access to the Brightness
Menu and Option Menu commands. This menu item can only be used
to disable Customization. See Enabling Customization (section 11) to
enable customization.
